“Your life is a just a song / It’s here and then it’s gone / What type of trip are you on?” sings Mike Bones on Barking at the Moon – the penultimate track on Weak Signal’snew album, Fine. It’s a line that reminds me of bands that swerve a key facet of the human emotion: humour. Avoiding humour presents a watered-down version of ‘the song’, ultimately deeming it irrelevant even with the little time one has to actually listen to one.
