Despite being released in the early months of 2024, it can be confidently stated that Bats Feet For A Widow by Bingo Fury already stands out as one of the most original and comprehensive records of the year so far.
It presents an intriguing collection of experimental, highly creative music combining Scott Walker-inspired songs, refined jazz, and dynamic no wave elements. The tracks on the LP may not be easily accessible, but with each playthrough, their unpredictable nature and overall eccentricity increasingly captivate the listener.
Bingo Fury demands a lot from his audience but in exchange offers rich rewards — moments of transcendent beauty and profound emotional resonance. He masterfully channels his innermost feelings into something that, while atypical and avant-garde, remains sentimental and intimately relatable.
Bats Feet For A Widow is a one-of-a-kind debut, a truly timeless-sounding experience poised to connect with an inquisitive audience.
FFO: Scott Walker, These New Puritans, Talk Talk, Bark Psychosis, Kim Gordon.
