Soap&Skin - "Sugarbread" (LOVED)
Videos5 CommentsAustrian singer-songwriter Soap&Skin drops a new video in promotion for her latest single, which comes on the tail of an intense and forlorn sophomore album that I loved last year.
"Sugarbread" features the same vocal stylings, but it's incredibly heavy with organ and orchestral hits of brass and strings. It's massive from both a sonic and emotional standpoint. You can pre-order a copy of this 7" here.

New Tracks2 CommentsThough it was a short release, Soap&Skin's Narrow still towers as one of my favorite albums of 2012, which is mostly due to the darkness and emotional intensity of the songs. From the sound of what the embedded widget above offers, it looks like the tracks on this forthcoming release aren't exactly looking to ease things up either.
The first clip features some horrifying screams and heavy shots of strings and drums. The second features a sweeping string ensemble, and the third seems to be steady piano ballad that feels simultaneously depressing and beautiful.
