Mykimono’s “MotherTongue (language has a fault of its own)” has a roiling dynamic that swirls with saturated tone that goes spacious and clear like a day with high flying clouds that flow and move rapidly in a wind that hasn’t quite hit the ground. Musically it is reminiscent of a more introspective Swervedriver with the wah elegantly pitching the tones accented by a bass line that periodically punches gently through the soundscape to accent the riff. The tone is a touch melancholic but awash in nostalgia and hints of romance whether that’s romantic love lost or of something or some time that can never be again. The words of the song express well the inadequacy of language to express the fullness of feeling though one tries with poetic language and metaphor.
