Oggi esce il nuovo singolo di It Sound, del musicista di Seattle Jesse Damm "Let’s Run Far from Here’"
A trance-like jam ruminating on a hopeless romance between a free woman and a man in prison, Let’s Run Far From Here takes a groovy approach to despondency, elevating the claim of “no romance” to a hopeful acceptance of the truth.
The pine box is the casket where the love will end up, while the trees speculate on the woman’s solitary domain.
The song’s texture is created by a bouncy bassline that is punctuated by dragging chains, handclaps, and spacecraft liftoffs draped with the forlorn vocals of It Sound.
The song has the stylistic bounce and jam of early records by The Clean or Belle and Sebastian pressed through a Beat Happening kaleidoscope. It’s DIY, but in an ‘IYKYK’ style. The Monochrome Set or Haircut 100 cut to early Neu tracks.
Let’s Run Far From Here settles on joy and solitude through the lens of the natural world.
The music is complemented by the artwork of Parisian artist Pascal Le Gras, renowned for his striking work, which has provided record collaborations for The Fall, The Jazz Butcher, Jad Fair, Fred Frith, and Alan Vega. The art’s primal beauty perfectly captures the punk heart of It Sound’s sonic rebellion.
About It Sound
It Sound unleashes a visceral new soundscape with his latest LP, ‘It’s Called Blood’.
Steeped in a raw, DIY spirit echoing London’s post-punk heyday, each track plunges listeners into a captivating blend of cavernous bass thumps, colossal electric guitar, and rebellious messthetic cut-ups.
It’s a vibrant tapestry of pulsing colors, where organic meditations collide with hard pop, recalling the distorted elegance of the Velvets, the stoic jubilee of A Certain Ratio, and the dystopian thump of Pink Industry.
Born and raised in Seattle, Jesse Damm’s music echoes the raw, untamed beauty of the Pacific Northwest. The music is complemented by the visual world of Parisian artist Pascal Le Gras, renowned for his striking work, which has provided record covers for The Fall and The Jazz Butcher. The art’s primal beauty perfectly captures the punk heart of It Sound’s sonic rebellion.
Though a one-man band, It Sound’s ‘It’s Called Blood’ LP is further amplified by collaborations: a dub-infused duet featuring Caithlin DeMarrais of Rainer Maria, mastering from avant-garde jazz nihilist Weasel Walter, and vocals from his two children, Yana and Lukas.
Further, dive into a dub version of the album song In Between the Seas, brilliantly remixed by Lectric Sands and recently released on George Chen’s Zum Audio Vol. 4 compilation – available now on Spotify.
