BRIGHTON, ENGLAND—The eight-piece experimental art-rock collective known as big long sun officially announced the upcoming release of their new album, love songs and spiritual recollections, on Tuesday. The band confirmed that the album would feature a collection of sonic bedroom art rock pop noises intended for dreaming. Sources close to the band reported that the new album, love songs and spiritual recollections, represents a significant artistic leap. Or perhaps just a small one. It is difficult to say without listening.
Band Members Emerge From Hibernation
The announcement came after a lengthy period of what sources described as ‘intense sonic contemplation.’ The eight members of big long sun have reportedly been living in a single, acoustically treated room for the past two years. “We needed to fully immerse ourselves in the vibe,” explained lead visionary and blanket fort architect Mina-Mae Alexander. “The songs came to us through the vibrations of our shared breathing. It was very pure.” The first single from the forthcoming love songs and spiritual recollections, titled ‘call it a voice,’ was released concurrently. Early reports suggest it sounds like a voice. Or possibly several voices.
A New Dawn For Ambient Noise
Fans of big long sun expressed mild surprise that big long sun was still an active musical entity. “I thought they broke up in 2019 after that one show at the community hall,” remarked local resident and occasional concertgoer Barry Jenkins. “Good for them, though. It’s important to keep dreaming.” The band hopes their new collection of ambient soundscapes will resonate with listeners seeking solace. They are particularly proud of the track ‘dream sequence part 7 (whispers).’ You can learn more about the creative process at Stereogum.
At press time, the band was reportedly unable to locate the master tapes for the album. They were last seen being used as coasters.
