Gun Has No Trigger is the first release from the Dirty Projectors’ new album, Swing Lo Magellan. There’s a familiar but brilliant intensity in the backing harmonies, rising to a hysterical peak in the chorus. Meanwhile, David Longstreth does something creepy and sensual with the melody, painting a scene of absurd and fruitless desperation with his singular, soul-shaking voice. Amazing.
