Vagabond Holes: David McComb & The Triffids by Chris Coughran, Niall Lucy · The Triffids were never labeled as a Christian band, but there's an undeniably spiritual feel to several of the songs on Calenture. Moreover, vocalist David McComb spews his words with the fiery passion of a backwoods preacher. The orchestral sweep of "Bury Me Deep in Love" recalls the Waterboys ' expansive sound; the lyrics are unmistakably religious as McComb looks for salvation in a chapel. Fans Vagabond Holes: David McComb and the Triffids Nick Cave will immediately be seduced by McComb 's bluesy croon; deep and brimming with palpable sorrow, McComb 's voice never dwindles in intensity. McComb 's explosive rage at the finale of "Vagabond Holes" should have been the Triffids' last gasp, an unsettling blast of scarred emotions that isn't easy to shake off.

Vagabond Holes: David McComb & The Triffids : Chris Coughran : Niall Lucy 11 November - 5 June was an Australian writer and scholar best known for his work in deconstruction. He worked mainly in the fields of deconstruction, literary theory and cultural criticism. His latter work much of it collaborative brought a deconstructive approach to contemporary Australian events and figures. In Postmodern Literary Theory: An IntroductionLucy identifies postmodernism as a continuation albeit not by conscious or deliberate means of romanticismespecially in the form of ideas associated with the Jena romantics in Germany in the late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries. Lucy argues that postmodernism should be distinguished from poststructuralismand especially from deconstruction as associated with the work of Jacques Derrida. Lucy's work is notable for its sense of humour, and for taking popular culture no less seriously than philosophy. The Vagabond Holes: David McComb and the Triffids tendency in his later work towards a philosophical engagement with contemporary events is strongly informed by Derrida's Specters of Marx and the idea of democracy-to-come, which is the linchpin of Lucy's account of the importance of deconstruction in A Derrida Dictionary Much of Lucy's recent work has been collaborative, and directly concerned with contemporary Australian Vagabond Holes: David McComb and the Triffids events and figures. Among other recent works, Lucy's co-edited collection with Chris CoughranVagabond Holesis a tribute to his late friend, David McComblead singer and songwriter for Australian rock band The Triffidswhich defies the conventions of a rock biography in its deconstruction of the notion of an autonomous self or identity. Ranging across diverse topics, and working in multiple styles, the book offers a further elaboration of Lucy's work on democracy-to-come. Niall's final book, A Dictionary of Postmodernism will be published posthumously by Wiley-Blackwell in Lucy has been lauded internationally for his work in deconstruction.
