Just four years after their debut album Carbeth, Trembling Bells are amassing a formidable body of work at a startling velocity. Just twelve months after the release of their critically acclaimed third album The Constant Pageant, the Glasgow quartet return to share the billing with a similarly restless creative spirit. A few thousand miles separate Will Oldham and Trembling Bells' drummer and principal songwriter Alex Neilson, but their stories intersect as far back as 2005, when the young Leeds-raised Neilson found himself playing drums on Alasdair Roberts' No Earthly Man, with Oldham producing. The knowledge that Oldham and Blackwall would be sharing centre-stage on The Marble Downs gave Neilson extra impetus to flex his songwriting muscles. I Can Tell You're Leaving finds both vocalists on irresistible form, dissecting their dying relationship with no heed to the other's feelings. "You treat me like a child," sings Oldham. "I need a man," she responds, barely catching breath. "Now like Merle Haggard, you'll see the fighting side of me," he later promises. "I guess that's one of the lighter moments on the album," ponders Neilson, "I was trying to get a Planet Waves-era Bob Dylan feel there, with the piano and walking bassline." What pleases Alex Neilson when he listens back is "a sense of a common vocabulary and identity being forged." If, by that, he means that there isn't another band on the planet that quite sounds like Trembling Bells, it would be hard to disagree. The evidence is right here.
