This was the end of Brighter, their last release on Sarah and amusingly the last track on this 5 track EP was called "End" too. Its Sarah C86 distilled to the ultimate degree, concentration X. A mournful fragile and beautiful piece of pop.
"Killjoy", which opens the album, is quite upbeat. Almost weirdly upbeat for Brighter indeed with its jangly guitar chords and driving bass but still a perfect Brighter moment, the chorus is wonderful. "British summertime" is maybe more typical Brighter, a slow sad and fragile pop tune. To me there is no better band that this, their music speaking directly to my heart.
This was the end of Brighter and what a way to end, a perfectly judged EP. Thank you Brighter for all you gave to me and many others.
