Latest single from new album ‘A Hole Forever’ announced for 17th November 2023 via Adrian Recordings

Spunsugar is releasing their new track, ‘White Sneakers’, the latest instalment from their upcoming new album A Hole Forever, via Adrian Recordings on 3rd November 2023, paired with an artsy music video. Forthcoming sophomore album set for release on 17th November 2023.

Artist: Spunsugar
Singel: White Sneakers

‘White Sneakers’ references a one-sided love affair whose defining feature was their white basketball shoes. It follows the same introspective themes as the previous singles, delving into the dense topics of love, loss, and life. ‘White Sneakers’, in a sentence, is a daydream about someone, only to be suddenly aware of how it might not be appropriate. The soft guitar and synth riff represent the narrator's naivety, only to be interrupted by the verse - awoken to a guitar so distorted it sounds like something is breaking

“This might be the sexiest song we've done? It's still sad though, don't worry,” Spunsugar said. “At its core, a love song. Even sappier, it's about unrequited love. About longing for someone close to you that you shouldn’t long for and the shame that comes with it. That's where the dichotomy comes in, both lyrically and musically. A cool piece of trivia: ‘White Sneakers’ started as a cover of ‘Carrie’ by Europe, but it's changed significantly since then. Don't sue us, Joey Tempest.”

The coinciding music video follows in the same vein as their ‘San Jose’ flick; artsy, vintage, and timeless with a false sense of swagger. The lighthearted imagery juxtaposes the not-so lightheartedness of the lyrics, aiming to evoke teenage heartache and small town industrial poetry, but with a hint of self awareness and silliness.

Growing up farmer offsprings, bible belt kids of fundamentalists and trailer trash in small towns of Sweden, Spunsugar are based in Malmö, Sweden and consists of band members Cordelia Moreau, Elin Ramstedt and Felix Sjöström. Each member carries a separate musical background, creating a melting pot of their distinct influences. Some of the group’s most cherished artists are Cocteau Twins, Red House Painters, Hole, Electric Youth, Ramones, and Misfits.

Spunsugar dropped their critically acclaimed debut album Drive-Through Chapel in 2020 and an EP Things That I Confuse in 2021, leading to an abundance of media support from Steve Lamacq at BBC Radio 6 Music, The Independent, The Line of Best Fit, Nothing but Hope and Passion, and more. The ensemble has released three singles from A Hole Forever thus far: ‘Skin Unwell’ on 14th June, ‘It Never Gave Me Anything’ on 18th August, and ‘San Jose’ on 29th September 2023, setting the tone for the band’s impending electrifying second album.

Spunsugar’s new LP A Hole Forever will further discuss dense topics and expose the realities of coming to terms with internal shame. The album tackles themes about getting older and confessing dark secrets with the mindset that life is a slow death.

Spunsugar’s new single and music video 'White Sneakers’ will be released on 3rd November 2023 ahead of their sophomore album A Hole Forever on 17th November 2023.

“Spunsugar has stood out with a bold knack for adding a mutant array of sonic nuances and playing with contrasts to create a compelling rich melange of resonant intensity and strong melodic capabilities”.

“raw and woozy 90s-inspired blend of electronic, post-punk and pop influences”.

PODCAST 048 | Cruz De Cal

The Old Regime

Awkward

If There's No Heaven...

Black cat go into the night and feast into the flesh of the gothic.

Black Cat

Paseas entre muertos
Percibes remordimiento en su aroma
Han perdido dulce sentido
Ansías experimentar su tormento.

Sensación de vacío
Te envilecen los recuerdos 
Nunca esperas hallar la luz, no hay remedio
El camino es eterno     

No existe temor
Sombra eterna, de luto y silencio
Poner fin, placentera agonía
Entre susurros de almas

Buscando el fin de este mundo ausente
Desesperanza y miseria
Los errores del pasado
Orillan al final
 
Entre suspiros sombrios esperamos
Redención y sepulcro
Poner fin encontrando la muerte
Descansando el alma.

Sombra Eterna

Thanks for listening for all of these years!

Elizabeth

Like an effigy with diamond eyes,
nothing left of me but I survive --
all the stars are going silent,
swallowed by the night,
inundated by the crying skies

Cut my heart out with a shining knife,
the bloody magic of a sacrifice --
I know the process will be violent,
paying such a price,
even though it happens by design

But they'll never take my diamond eyes
But they'll never take my diamond eyes

Made of ebony and icy light,
found my heaven in the rising tide --
indigo becoming violet,
running out of time,
falling back into a child's mind

I'm slipping under the horizon line,
but something tells me it'll be just fine --
I hear the choir of the twilight
singing of the scythe,
crossing over to the other side

But they'll never take my diamond eyes
But they'll never take my diamond eyes

Diamond Eyes

SUPERNOVA

In the dream world Lucy is brave, she bites into apples of bliss and faces all her fears, she paints her own story at lightspeed. This track details her every move with whimsical lyrics, accerated electric guitars melodies that dance amoungst soaring post punk vocals weaving the perfect indie rock song. Let yourself bounce to this contoured but chaotic track that scrapes the ceiling of liberation. The rhythm is fast so try keep up, playful yet stirring atmosphere throughout it reminds us that the dream world is either the perfect distraction or the perfect playground.

Lucid Lucy

Spring in the wind with pennies in my palm
Dogs bark to wailing alarms
Mother dreamt of calm
We weren’t born into art
We were sold for parts and left

Yet we were handsome and we held hope
And ran the street on an empty gloat
Theft means you’re broke
But it’s different strokes
For different folks
I’d do it all again

I’d do it all again

How can I stop myself, from order of artificial intelligence?
And how can I stop myself?
Won’t you throw me a line?
Won’t you throw me a line?

I’m in awe of phase-based news and I know it’s flawed
And I’m bored of the sordid softcore porn
I’ve been placed on this platform
And if you’re inactive for days you’re no longer half-famous

I’ve fallen to craters of dangerous places
Adverts are television and algorithms are like plasticine
Throw me to chastity, happily challenge me or dance with me
Shut down your computer
And shut down the asylum
I said shut down your computer
And shut down the asylum

How can I stop myself, from order of artificial intelligence?
And how can I stop myself?
Won’t you throw me a line?
Won’t you throw me a line?

Black snow falls, it’s received with thank you’s
Chaos is a virtue here
Specular reflection sneers droops your features like
Clay endearing to our fears
You here the pistol squeal
Epileptic drain lids the disruption of schizophrenic hydrants, defies silence
Then a hum in the latter of the tunnel


You spend your days planned
With will to make grands
Stranded in the middle of the wasteland
Wishing to see the pearly gates stand
And there waits your offering from loving grey hands

How can I stop myself, from order of artificial intelligence?
And how can I stop myself?
Won’t you throw me a line?
Won’t you throw me a line?
