Song Crush: London Town (William Control)

Originally published 27/09/09 on http://www.rookiefm.blogspot.com/

   From Hate Culture, debut album from William Control, (Aiden singer WiL Francis' side project).
   
  The perfect example of goth-rock, Hate Culture is about a man named William Control and his last night on earth before he kills himself. Yes, it's a little morbid (and a lot emo) but I can't help but love this song. The final track on the record, London Town is quite different to the rest of the leather-clad ,electro-synth-metal, dance tunes; the lyrics perfectly reflect the utter despair and isolation of a man disillusioned with love, the world around him and humanity in general; this is accompanied by a haunting melody to create a beautiful acoustic piece. Whether you're indulging in the grief of rejected love, or just in the mood for something slower, this song is the ideal melancholy accessory for your everso 'deep' and dejected wallowing.
