Witness [Clear Vinyl] (Can) (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

SUUNS' fifth full-length album The Witness - once again marks a shrewdly offbeat left turn. The tried-and-true narrative for a band of this nature is always to 'move to the deep end' or 'out of the comfort zone'. In some ways that rings true on The Witness, though one could say these eight movements actually show SUUNS in their most comfortable, candid state. Self-recorded and self-produced over the majority of 2020 - a year of strife, solitude and reflection -, The Witness finds the band holding a magnifying glass over their own default state of playing and performing. It's a swift departure from previous album Felt, which exults in harvesting haphazard ideas in their embryonic, demoed versions, as if letting loose a glorious firework display into the heavens.
