Jizzney - Giant Dog

Jizzney - Giant Dog
3:16
Pile, 2016

Singer Sabrina Ellis, of this Austin-based band, has a great rock voice, and blended with the male voice it really elevates this song.  Sloppy post-punk pop, clanging along with triumphant major chords, belying the dour nature of the lyrics, about a former or perhaps only perceived lover who isn't around.  In fact, they're out with someone else!  I dig the irreverent humor: "Some people that I know / Are gonna track him down / And run him out."  But it's also nostalgic, and melancholy in its way, thinking back to a better moment in time.
