Chris has weaved throughout my music over the years — he played guitar on my first LP, A, as well as on ‘County Line', he co-produced Interior Live Oak, and he is a remarkable musician and songwriter. Both songs are somewhat cracked meditations on dignity. ‘Steel Reserve’ explores the bushes, hidden away. Public life has nothing to offer dignity. ‘Ignis Fatuus’ is a pirate’s treasure collected from an Earth stained with blood and madness — stolen from W.B. Yeats.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCohen adds, “Cass and I go back to early 2000s Bay Area. I’ve always thought he was an amazing songwriter so I was very happy when he sent me lyrics. I took it as a dare, as the words were tricky and the forms unusual ones for songs, but I followed them exactly as they were. The music is my reaction to the words as I understood them. Also Cass is a killer guitar player so I had him come in and put some classical guitar on top of ‘Steel Reserve’. We both harmonize and trade verses on ‘Ignis Fatuus’ so it is our first proper duet.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cass McCombs and Chris Cohen","offers":[{"title":"7 inch","offer_id":42628758437984,"sku":"731867","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital","offer_id":42628758405216,"sku":"731866","price":2.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/1882\/9920\/files\/CassMcCombs_ChrisCohen_SteelReserve_Mockup_7Inch_US_2000x1417_46a82481-d6fe-4dd6-847f-f9ea4a90cb02.jpg?v=1772646722"}],"url":"https:\/\/megamart.subpop.com\/collections\/cass-mccombs-and-chris-cohen\/music.oembed","provider":"Sub Pop Mega Mart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
