 | | Description: | SLUG return with a new album â??Thy Socialite!â? on a new label formed by Field Musicâ??s Peter and David Brewis.
However, simply a pastiche and nostalgic throwback this isnâ??t. Despite the playful nods to some of the more grandiose, theatrical and overblown elements of the aforementioned genre, itâ??s also an album with a contemporary pop edge, slick production and a tangible connection to SLUGâ??s previous deft mix of indie, rock and art pop.
The result of all of this is an album that is fun and unpredictable but also conceptually smart, ambitious and adventurous. A place where classic hard rock and smart art-pop are treated equal, and where taking the piss doesnâ??t have to equate to being novelty or disposable. It was all part of the challenge that Black set himself from the off when he asked himself â??how could I challenge the SLUG listener but bring them on a new fresh journey which will confuse them at first but they will ultimately love?â?
For David Brewis of Field Music, it was the ideal first record to kick off their new label. "This seemed like the perfect start for Daylight Saving Records," he says. "We've always loved what Ian does and it's been a thrill over the years to help Ian dig these wild musical ideas out from his brain. Now we can have a hand in putting them into people's ears too." - "Thy Socialite!" is the debut solo album by Slug, released in CD format through Memphis Industries / Indigo. Known as one half of the acclaimed hip-hop duo Atmosphere, Slug (Sean Daley) brings his signature storytelling and introspective lyricism to this project. The album explores themes of social connection, vulnerability, and personal growth with a blend of soulful beats and sharp wordplay. Fans will appreciate Slug's ability to weave complex emotions into relatable narratives, making "Thy Socialite!" both thought-provoking and accessible. Memphis Industries is an independent record label based in London, renowned for its diverse roster that spans indie rock, pop, electronic music, and more. Over the years, they have supported innovative artists like Field Music and Poliça while maintaining a reputation for quality releases across genres. | | | Manufacturer No.: |
