For his new side project, Yuck frontman Daniel Blumberg has swapped fuzz for forlorn piano on this lo-fi lament
Yuck's Daniel Blumberg unveiled Oupa ? his slightly less dissonant side project ? earlier this year with the promise of an album in June. Slightly later than planned, Forget is out now and features the haunting track Windows. Built around simple piano chords, Blumberg's delicate whisp of a voice and what sounds like the hum of a tape recorder, it's a beautifully fragile lament. The video features a revolving window pane displaying what appear to be faded memories, creating a mesmerising spectacle for a song that draws you in the more you listen.
