Current Joys — East My Love (Secretly Canadian)
Tumblr media
Nicholas Rattigan has been performing as Current Joys since 2013, in a variety of different ways: pulse-y bedroom-recorded electronic pop, bucolic acoustic songwriter folk and a noisy, beat-driven pair of records called Love + Pop and Love + Pop 2. None of that would prepare you, especially, for his latest work, an angsty and full-throated album of country rock that significantly ups both the production quality and the intensity of Rattigan’s work.   
His ragged voice flutters over strumming and strings in the opener “Echoes of the Past,” infusing a full-band ramble with a restless punk-ish energy. It reminded me immediately of the Swedish alt.folk band Amandine, one of my favorites from that era for its beauty and quiet desperation.
From there, the disc turns sweepingly, epically pop with the single, “California Rain,” the song all roll and swell, bashing drums, erupting guitars and thick swathes of string sound. The other single, “Tormenta” is more restrained, building tension with clamped guitar chords and a warbled, angst filled melody. But it too gathers for a leap at the chorus, kicking the drums in a moment before the refrain, “But you’ll always be my favorite storm,” begins.
There are a few endearingly odd moments on East My Love, which make more sense after you’ve heard Rattigan’s home-taped albums and cassettes. For instance, “Never Seen a Rose,” filters his voice through a quieting scrim but doesn’t dial back the energy; it sounds like he’s whispering as hard as he can. Rattigan also covers Simon & Garfunkle’s “Feelin’ Groovy” at the end in the loosest, most uninhibited fashion. He gets an especial kick out of the line, “dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.” He tries and stumbles with the phrase at the opening, then nailed it triumphantly near the end, and the imperfection somehow reinforces the song’s giddy vibe. East My Love is mostly sleek and accomplished, but there’s a nervy, ragged home recorder in there underneath, and he peeks out at the album’s best moments.

☞About Nick Rattigan and great dances
Nick was TELE/VISIONS who then turned into Current Joys, and who I just discovered is also part of Surf Curse. 10/10 all around.

"Sometimes the best songs come from the darkest moments.
It's where I find inspiration to create something beautiful out of pain."
