SUIR - Ater (2017) EN


The debut album by German SUIR is a combination of darkwave, post-punk and shoegaze. It attacks on two fronts - with dense synthesizer sounds and belligerent vocal. One can hardly stay indifferent facing twe two.

The album released by Black Verb Records starts with a suspense building intro that is continued by "Realism". Which is slow and full of an uncanny mood - a dark one, coloured with electronic sounds. The melodies played on synthesizers are not, let's say, orthodoxically melodic, sometimes they are like grains of sand between your teeth ("Den of Thieves" that turns into a real mess of sounds) but it really suits this dark and avant-garde music. The next track, "White Spheres" is more guitar-based but soon enough, in "122 Eyes", the band comes back to creating an ocean of sound that almost by an accident is used as a background for some cold wave vocals.

The album and its composition is closed by "No More Reality" with its unnerving background noise and lazy pace.

"Ater" costs 6 EUR.
