LP released: Apr 12, 2011
Bearsuit return with an off-the-wall pop masterpiece and a fierce new sound incorporating dirty synths, urgent guitars and infectious beats. Produced by Gareth Parton (The Go! Team, Breeders, Foals) The 12-track long-player heralds a fierce new sound for the band, who have swapped violins, flutes and horns for dirty synths, urgent guitars and infectious beats in the light of a dramatic line-up change. The polished disco-synth debut single Please Don't Take Him Back was playlisted on BBC 6Music , as well as being hotly tipped in the music press including Artrocker & Clash. Weeks later and their second release A Train Wreck was rated an NME Top 10 Download. The band lead into 2011 having secured a profile slot at the SXSW festival in Texas for Huw Stephens' Radio 1 showcase. The Phantom Forest is laden with dance-floor fillers, killer beats and brazen melodies. It will keep you dancing until all the booze is drunk, with a birdsong finale to serenade your dawn-walk home. But lurking beneath, a more sinister and melancholy thread weaves the 12 tracks together. Beset by their own dangers, Bearsuit have survived to make the best album of their career. |
