Indie
They may not be the most iconic Kurt and Courtney duo in history, but they're a pairing that definitely works well. 'Lotta Sea Lice' meets somewhere in between Kurt Vile's spiritual slacker country & western, and Courtney Barnett's self-effacing indie rock. Vile's Pennsylvanian drawl and Barnett's Aussie spoken-word blend perfectly, seeming as though they're bouncing off each other's natural relaxed coolness. The duo trade verses, lines and even each other's songs, with a cover 'Out Of The Woodwork' from Barnett's 2013 double EP, and Barnett offering a stripped back solo version of Kurt Vile's 'Peeping Tomboy'. Interestingly, they cover each other so well that either party could have written the original. In this way, this collaboration makes so much sense that, hopefully, it won't be limited to one album together.
