Courting – “Namcy”

In just a few days, the fired-up Liverpool post-punkers Courting, who were a Stereogum Band To Watch last year, will release a new LP with the absurd title Lust For Life, Or: ‘How To Thread The Needle And Come Out The Other Side To Tell The Story’. As someone who gets annoyed by gimmicky and verbose LP titles, I am here to tell you that it’s a good record and that you should not let that put you off. Previous singles “Pause At You” and “After You” both made our list of the week’s best songs in their own respective weeks. Will their new single “Namcy” be accorded the same prestigious honor? Stay tuned to find out!
