Freak Paeans - "Civet Cat Civet Cat".
Freak Paeans - "What Have I Always Held Forth?".
Freak Paeans is a secret person. His identity is not disclosed. He recorded a cassette in 2005 and now Caff/Flick have reissued Now When I Wear An Anchor on CD. You can buy it for £1, or for more if you like. I think it is fitting that a secret person sounds like a cross between Elliott Smith and early Devendra Banhart. Both of those people feel half-secret, half made-of-secret. So here's the whole-secret version, glimmering hard. I wonder what it feels like to be a secret person, living in a shabby hut on a hill, wind blowing through. I wonder what it's like to cultivate a secret garden that no one knows, tulips and poseys. I wonder whether the sun feels different, when you're secret; or the moon. And whether falling in love feels like a kind of joke.
