Earlier this year, New Orleans post-punk duo the Convenience released their very good album Like Cartoon Vampires. Today, the band follows that LP with a new one-off single that has nothing whatsoever to do with cartoon vampires, even though it’s almost Halloween and everything. Their latest track is called “Angel.” If anything, angels are the opposite of cartoon vampires. They’re at least enemies. I’m pretty certain of that. If a vampire and an angel saw each other in a bar, maybe it wouldn’t be on sight, but they’d at least glare at each other surreptitiously.
