THE GASLIGHT TROUBADOURS: THE DEVIL SWINGS OUT [GREEN QUEEN MUSIC]

THE GASLIGHT TROUBADOURS are two shadowy UK-based producers named Professor Singleton Purblind and Lon Lippincott, exploring the darker side of the pond, whether that be from the Victorian era, the first half of the twentieth century, or anywhere else that tales their fancy. You can certainly describe what they do as vintage, but The Gaslight Troubadours’ main aim is to recreate the slightly twisted concepts that have been dreamt up in their somewhat sinister imaginations.

“The Devil Swings Out” is their first single on Green Queen Music. Far more uptempo than the tracks on their debut album Clockwork Curiosities, the influence here is unmistakably thirties American Swing, but the subject matter is far darker than most. Less Fred Astaire, this is about the devil. It’s a cautionary tale, which warns that if you carry on down a certain path in life, then the devil will come a knockin’. But is that really such a bad thing when the devil has all the best moves? You decide.

Grab it from Juno.
