Bean. S.talk makes his way onto the scene with "Kitty of the World," a scorching new single that's as much blues-rock bullshit as it is personal therapy. The track howls with all the uncut swagger, soaking in punk energy while swaying in the soulful haze of classic rock. It's bluesy, mental, and wonderfully unpredictable.
"Kitty of the World" is a gritty, gut-punching celebration of a difficult cat, a "butt bag," as Bean.S.talks adds, which somehow makes manifest the spirit of the world in all its maddening allure. It's the type of pet you both mock and long for when you've lost them. That manic muse delivered a single that begs to be played loud and felt deeply.
There's an unmistakable effort baked into the track. You can hear it in the guitar's growl, the rhythmic sloppiness that feels deliberate, the vocals dancing between emotional and unhinged. It's not smoothened to within an inch of its life, but that's the very reason it succeeds. The flaws make it human or feline, perhaps.
This is Bean.S.talk's most raw form of sound storytelling. Life inspired it, and emotion drives it. And there are also likely to be feelings that the listener did not anticipate, such as amusement, memories, perhaps even a pang of empathy for the bedlam of cats we've known. "Kitty of the World" may be one of a kind, but its far longer-lasting impact is the emotional resonance it leaves behind.
