This cut from Melbourne’s Alyx Dennison takes some unexpected turns: from the sparse and wistful opening minute to an eastern interlude becoming near Irish folk in its second minute, to a lush and rousing final act. Yet somehow it’s woven together without artifice, just wholly heartfelt precision and charm. “Jewels Are Just Lumps” (h/t Autumn Roses) appears on Dennison’s new self-titled record.
