Broken Social Scene’s resident scruffy dream hunk, Kevin Drew, has posted a new b-side from his upcoming solo album Spirit If… up on his Ye Olde MySpace Profile. The song carries the quintessentially Drewish title of “Cocaine Skin” (it may be no “Gang Bang Suicide” but I’ll take it.) Personally, the tune puts me in mind of drifting down the Mississippi in a canoe, circa 1920, lying on my back, gazing up at a dreamlike canopy of stars that gradually morphs into a game of Asteroids, all while my Cajun man-servant, Pickle Joe, cooks up a mean cabbage soup on a little stove at the other end of the canoe (it’s a very long canoe.)

Spirit If… drops like a lysergic water balloon on September 18th via Arts & Crafts.

Yours,

Torquil Crossingham
