Walter Price is a wonderful music critic and runs “Global Texan Chronicle.”
He gave our recent single (well, all of them) really nice write-ups; the latest one here
While it’s lovely to see the words …
CATNYP’s Henderson K Shatner isn’t one to be easily pigeonholed. Delivering fiery single after single with strong comparisons to Bowie, Andy Partridge, Daniel Ash, and heavy on metaphoric brilliance that more often than not conjures up plenty of fantastic imagery. And the Missoula songwriter’s recent single “The Architecture of Berlin” is no exception.
Wordsmithery at its finest, drawing scenes that only the likes of Henderson could imagine. This single further cements Henderson as one of the more intriguing and certainly entertaining song crafters going these days. And you can stream the new single and see its Noir meets psychedelia, self-produced, music video, here at the GTC.
… Walter also shared this review from Trip Advisor about the cafe. Which is, absolutely, the song itself…
Imagine an old fashion European Coffee shop. Imagine two rooms filled with wooden tables and an eclectic mix of chairs. The shop is a smoky place with yellowed windows from decades of cigarette smoke and coal spewed out from the heater in corner of the room. Looking out the window one sees wet streets with barb wire and shadows of the guards in trench coats holding riffles. The cloak and dagger days are over, the Cold War atmosphere is long gone. I came hoping to see secret agents taking shots of vodka looking out the window. Sadly, there exists a modern day expensive busy coffee shop. The character is very different form years ago, it is however safer and probably family friendly. I came for nostalgia.
