Our favourite desert-dwelling mystic
serves a short but potent third album
for Warp. Under the creed "You can put a
muzzle on me, cover my mouth, cut out my
tongue but the truth will still come
out" Sumach Valentine rasps ten songs
meditating on the impact of his
experiences on the road "It's the
response to all the adrenaline,
aggression and anger he felt traveling
the world, it's a spectrum of creativity
and a testimony of how one mans passion
and determination is often misunderstood
as anger." The downcast mood and bruised
sense of soul is a much darker cry than
his other mini-LP releases, starkly
realising and coming to terms with a
pervasive bleakness that just feels
right in these times. Rather than
psychedelic, the production tends
towards blunted and downbeat, from the
clearly Portishead-like vibes of 'White
Picket Fence' and 'Feedin' Birds',
through the busted drums and spooked
organs of 'Rubberband' or Timeout', but
our highlight has to be his heartbroken
effort 'The Blame', drawling "til they
f**king blow up mars, grown men f**kin'
blow up dolls" over wickedly woozy
synths and sluggish drums, bringing us
to the knackered conclusion of
'Blaksuit'.
