Sun Blood Stories to Release Shadow Loud Oct. 4
Okay, so I’ll readily admit that this isn’t so much a release announcement as it is information I swiped from Sun Blood Stories‘ Bandcamp page — no audio yet, hence the video at the bottom, which cuts the visual feed but resumes it a short while later — but the point stands that what seems to be coming is a new studio full-length from the Portland-via-Boise transplant heavy-psych/experimentalist-indie outfit, and it will be their first since 2019’s Haunt Yourself (review here), as well as their first since the aforementioned relocation. I have no further details than what’s below, but if you remember the band from the Before Times, I hope you’re as stoked to find out what they’ve been up to as I am.
And if not, well, okay. Maybe take a look at that clip, which was filmed at a radio station and captures the band’s noise-infused, immersive and emotionally-fueled live set. It’s 24 minutes, and that’s not a little ask out of your day, I know, but once you start it, it’s easy to keep going, and that’s kind of been the tale of Sun Blood Stories all along. If you’re adventurous enough to take them on in the first place, the rewards for doing so are manifold.
Here’s that info:
SBS is still here after 12 years. We are fueled by paranoia & hope, wonder & rage, & we do what we do like it’s the last time we’ll do it because one day, it will be.
Over the years the band has taken on many forms. We are now in the sixth chapter of the Sun Blood story.
