Brochures // TRASH
“Just how I planned / I’m getting out of here / roll out a map / I’m getting as far away as I can” sings TRASH‘s frontman Daniel Longmore on the opening verse of ‘Brochures’, a wanderlust fuelled and wistful song taken from the band’s debut EP Pretty Swish, released back in the summer of 2014. It’s a track that is, of course, about wanting to travel far away from a shitty hometown, but, more than anything else, it’s a love song.
“Darling I’m done waiting around / I just wanna lift off with you now / we can get real high if you want to / I’ll never get too tired of knowing you” is sung in perfect harmony against a melody that’s so mellow you’ll be listening to this track every summer for the rest of your life. A brilliant song that isn’t nearly as popular as it should be, hence it’s rightful appearance on this list.
