Record of the Week feels like one of those records that is going to pick up ever more momentum all year, until everyone is raving about it... quite right too! Weyes Blood (a.k.a. Natalie Mering)releases Titanic Rising on Sub Pop and it is very special indeed.
Co-produced by Foxygen’s Jonathan Rado, it is all about years of memory and feeling and the courage to explore them with some really out-there sonic techniques. Based equally in pop music and experimental ambience, it's a beautifully vivid album of weird tones and brilliant songs. Gloriously indecipherable instruments with warbling tape loops that frame her voice perfectly.
Beautifully delivered and even the sleeve is an absolute peach!
+ Limited Indie-shop-only 'Loser' LP version is pressed on red coloured vinyl.
