Honest Words is an EP by Scottish singer-songwriter King Creosote and English electronica musician Jon Hopkins, released on 19 September 2011 on Domino Records.[1] The release is available on 12" vinyl and digital download.
Following on from their Mercury Prize nominated debut, Diamond Mine, the EP features two new recordings alongside a reworking of album track, "Bats in the Attic".
Unlike their collaborative debut, the EP is not directly influenced by the East Neuk of Fife, with Domino Records noting, "Lyrically, there's more soul-searching than Fife folklore on the EP follow up to Diamond Mine [...] The music underneath follows these thoughts into more expansive, crystalline realms, far away from the harbours and tea-rooms where they began."[2]
Written by Kenny Anderson and Jon Hopkins, except where noted.
