Alex Cameron’s “Mongrel” is one of the most exciting we’ve heard in some months. The song, which channels great songwriters like Scott Walker and Jarvis Cocker, is simple and fresh both musically and lyrically. The song ambles along with understated perfection long enough to make you believe you’ve heard what it has to offer, the song drops an outstanding, disjointed electric guitar line and Cameron takes the vocal melody to a higher octave. I haven’t stopped listening to it for two days. What’s best is that since streaming embeds have become so popular, artists rarely offer downloads anymore, but today you can download “Mongrel” right here. Happy Friday.
