Se Delan’s debut album The Fall, set for release on 14th April, feels distinct from anything Greaves has worked on before. At certain points on the record there are uplifting soundscapes, complemented by spacious moments of heaviness akin to the most recent of records by Dylan Carlson’s Earth.
Tracks on the album such as ‘The Hunt’ could be a nod back to the progressiveness of CBP but overall the music on ‘The Fall’ is the sound of a musician experimenting outside the constraints of his main band, while at times also stripping everything back for a more minimal and raw approach to song-writing.
The duo have shared the writing duties on the album, with Justin making the music and Belinda creating the words and vocals. The combination of shared influences (‘music, film and life’) and a mutual understanding of the way each other works has resulted in a beguiling and haunting album.
In April Se Delan will play their first ever live shows supporting Norway’s Gazpacho.
