In a remarkable feat of both musical composition and sound design, \u003cem\u003eSuas\u003c\/em\u003e is a fascinating broadcast of songwriting wonder which repeatedly unveils the complex sonic beauty within.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe music of Sour Blood moves in lucid expressions, tender fault lines upon distinct waking and dreaming realities. \u003cstrong\u003eKevin Gleeson\u003c\/strong\u003e is responsible for these beautiful incantations, a Tipperary-born theatre artist and musician who debuted the project in 2019 with a sold out show at the Dublin Dance Festival. 2021 saw the release of his debut EP \u003cem\u003eGood Nevers\u003c\/em\u003e, four tracks exploring his unique sonic language formed in great consequence to an abundance of influences with a talent for sculpting sound into stirring structures of song.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten and recorded between Gothenburg and Dublin from 2022 to 2023 in collaboration with \u003cstrong\u003eBrendan Jenkinson\u003c\/strong\u003e (Villagers, Aoife Nessa Francis, John Francis Flynn), \u003cem\u003eSuas\u003c\/em\u003e is Sour Blood’s debut album and a monumental development in breadth and ability. A wintery warmth hues the album’s sonic palette, enhancing the pastoral complexities found within to make songs that ambitiously expand beyond far nearer horizons. Gleeson's vocal versatility is joyous, sometimes centre stage like on the forlorn R\u0026amp;B-inflected boom bap of \u003cem\u003eMysterious Creature\u003c\/em\u003e and in the piano-led warble of \u003cem\u003eBruise\u003c\/em\u003e, while others filtered and manipulated through reed-filled atmospheres that harmonise with its instrumentals in euphoric glee. The swooning currents that flow through tracks like \u003cem\u003eThe Devil\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eClot\u003c\/em\u003e highlight the budding romanticism bubbling at the surface throughout the album’s duration, before closer \u003cem\u003eOverglowing\u003c\/em\u003e strums through haunted acoustics and faint organs for a surreal finale of open-ended conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSuas\u003c\/em\u003e is a complex wonder of musicality, a debut that posits Sour Blood as a gifted artist of great worth in practice and output.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independent","offers":[{"title":"LP - Vinyl","offer_id":49070199275865,"sku":"SDZ-32660","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/Sour_Blood_-_Suas_-_2024.jpg?v=1723128393","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/sour-blood-suas","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
