I need to get something out of the way before I gush about how beautiful the sounds I just processed are.

When I recieved the press pack, I saw it included a file of lyrics for the seven inch. Upon opening it, I scrolled down a little and lo and behold was an exerpt from Night Gleam, a poem by Allen Ginsberg.

Congratulations, Montagna and your Mouth to Mouth, you’ve successfully won over my sensitivities before I’ve heard a single scrap of music you’ve produced.

My Ginsberg-loving nature aside, when listening to the title track of The Mouth to Mouth’s 7 inch Ultrapolyamorous, I realised this was not a song you listen to once or twice and decide upon your opinion solely from that. I find it intruiging that one song alone can be so diversified in genre and sound. One moment, it’s very much indie pop. The next, it’s basked in a glow of shoegaze ambience. The next, it’s thrust under the light of a psycho-electro Americana landscape.

It’s second track, “At Full Speed”, employs female vocal talent not unlike that of Isobel Campbell. This track is more easy going and accessible, akin to something Broken Social Scene may have wanted to come out with, but The Mouth to Mouth caught the worm and thought of it first. It still has that adorable character of mashing thirty songs into one, matching it quite perfectly with its predecessor.

Ultrapolyamorous, with it’s trippy alien noises and indecipherable vocals, makes for a thoroughly haunting listening experience. It’s individual, truly individual, which is a rarity among rarities. If this 7 inch is any inkling to Montagna and the The Mouth to Mouth’s new album, then fans and music lovers alike are in for quite the psychedelic ride.
