This is Psych. Yes, this is the kind of sound that will make you crave for being squashed in a massive crowd at a festival, eyes closed, ears exploding, mind tripping, legs dancing and head banging, lost and found, flooded by the fuzz, the reverb, the tune. 

Desert Daze<\/em> is a refreshing cauldron and marks a huge comeback for Clustersun, four years since their last effort \u2018Surfacing To Breathe\u2019 (Seahorse 2017), a classic shoegaze album that brought to the trio from Catania massive attention and airplay worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Avalanche,\u2019 Clustersun’s new album, will be released on March 3, 2021 via Icy Cold Records (FR) and Little Cloud Records (US). The release will be digital, on CD, and on limited edition coloured vinyl, with a marvellous artwork curated by an artist whose name will be disclosed soon.

\u2018Avalanche\u2019 departs from dreamy shoegaze, reaching at high speed desertic and acid sideways. Dark and shiny, disturbing and glorious, it’s an album that will fit well in a playlist featuring The Black Angels, The Lucid Dream, The (early) Telescopes, Dead Skeletons. The mix and mastering have been in charge of Mr James Aparicio, a real scene’s guru, thanks to his work for The Cult Of Dom Keller, Dead Vibrations, Piatcions \/ Throw Down Bones, Rev Rev Rev. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Desert Daze<\/em> video was shot and edited by Clustersun\u2019s drummer Andrea Conti. He wanted to visually express the desolation of the lyrics, the feeling of powerlessness and failure caused by an unattainable goal, may it be the killing of your own demons or impossible love. The video translates anger and despair in a fictional desertic war, through the deep gaze of a soldier child: alone, threatened, helpless, but still standing up and untamed, at the centre of a world falling around and above him.
