dour

Enduring the dour drudgery of “Last Rites,” it’s never been clearer that it’s time to give up the ghost.

Currie says that while Scots can be dour and cynical, underneath there’s often “a romantic optimism that the world is a beautiful place and that there is poetry in the world.”

I have to admit, to me, it looks a little bit dour – but it packs some original tech.

And, yeah, you could respond to that by diving into some dour complaintcore from an Anglo band who have never seen a sky that wasn’t a touch grey.

And then came “The Meg” and its slightly less dour sequel, “Meg 2: The Trench.”
