Single Of The Week: The Fumes : Dance In Costume

fumes.jpeg

The Fumes are getting down with the devil in this deeply theatrical spoken-word dirty blues single. It’s about a son outgrowing his father and buying a snappy suit so he can dance with a girl named Nancy, according to the press notes, but the story is hard to make out. It’s all lost in sleaze and haze and the occasional bellow of a soapbox prophet – a song to make Elmore Leonard proud.
