Silversun Pickups - Swoon
Little catch-up from a few weeks ago.
2nd album from the Smashing Pumpkins...oh I mean Silversun Pickups.
It's actually a good LP, and if you're not going to kill your idols, why not embrace them?

Silversun Pickups:
🎵 The Wreckage -
Silversun Pickups waren nie eine Band der großen Gesten. Ihre Stärke lag immer in der Reibung, im Spannungsfeld zwischen Lärm und Melodie, zwischen Nähe und Überforderung. Mit Tenterhooks, ihrem siebten Album, kehren sie genau zu diesem Kern zurück. Der Titel passt. Diese Songs wirken angespannt, nervös, oft so, als könnten sie jederzeit kippen. Nach dem […]

MØL – Dreamcrush Review By KilljoyOne of the common complaints I see about blackgaze is that it tends to be toothless compared to its black metal forebear. This is part of the personal appeal to me, but, in any case, Denmark’s MØL has built a reputation for bucking that trend. They managed to impress even hardened metalheads like Mark Z., who found their 2018 debut, Jord, biting enough to shake him from his blackgaze apathy. Nuclear Blast Records scooped up MØL for the release of Diorama in 2021, which largely picked up where Jord left off. Now, after a fairly lengthy absence, we have Dreamcrush. Is MØL still interested in being one of the fiercest voices in the blackgaze genre?
While MØL was once a direct competitor to Deafheaven, they have largely moved on to a different market segment. The change is most apparent in the guitars, which traded the muscular black metal riffs for a dreamy hybrid of classic shoegaze and vintage alt-rock hooks à la The Smashing Pumpkins or Silversun Pickups. At the same time, traces of more modern acts can be detected. The pairing of cheery, punk-tinged guitar chords with blackened rasps calls to mind Noctambulist. Other times, Dreamcrush is like a more gazey, less mathy version of Rolo Tomassi. Somehow, MØL has created something that feels both fresh and nostalgic.
These significant overhauls that MØL made to their formula have vastly improved replayability. On previous records, the guitars did a lot of the heavy lifting to convey nuanced emotion while the vocals mainly draped a uniform blanket of fury. Now, Kim Song Sternkopf’s clean singing shares much more of the melodic load. His harsh vocal range has also been noticeably expanded from his usual high-pitched snarls, dipping into low growls during tracks such as “Young” and “A Former Blueprint.” Dreamcrush is also more dynamic from an instrumental perspective, from the jangling guitar strumming (“Små Forlis”) to dark riffing (“Young”) to delicate strings (“Favour”). While I do enjoy MØL’s prior work, it didn’t quite escape a sense of homogeneity until now.
There are, however, a few small kinks in MØL’s newfound musical direction. Even though their melodies are distinctive, the song structures become a tad predictable, often alternating between clean-sung verses and lead guitar/harsh vocal choruses. Also, several songs have limp, unsatisfying conclusions (“DREAM,” “Dissonance”), slightly hampering the overall flow. Finally, Dreamcrush’s midsection (“Hud,” “Garland,” and “Favour”) is considerably softer than usual for MØL, which I personally appreciate but may cause some existing fans to take issue. I will say, however, that these tracks feature the more dazzling guitar solos, and the tail end of Dreamcrush hearkens more to MØL’s former aggression. Dreamcrush’s individual track lengths have been trimmed to reach an easily digestible total runtime of 42 minutes.
MØL continues to defy genre stereotypes, though in a much different way than before. No longer content to zoom past other groups in the blackgaze lane, they unexpectedly shifted to various other rock subgenres. Some longtime fans may be disappointed by the waning black metal, but MØL still juxtaposes ethereal and heavy with the skill that many of their peers strive for but rarely achieve. I can genuinely say that Dreamcrush is my favorite MØL release to date, and they have removed many of the barriers that were preventing me from fully embracing fandom. While Dreamcrush may not perfectly come together as a whole, it proves that MØL isn’t inclined to sit still and grow complacent.

Hell yeah! New #SilversunPickups!
I like the guitar in this one. A bit more folkish than alternative. But I like it.

Am 6. Februar 2026 veröffentlichen Silversun Pickups ihr siebtes Album „Tenterhooks“. Im letzten Jahr erschienen bereits die beiden großartigen Singles „New Wave“ und „The Wreckage“, die ich seitdem sehr oft gehört habe. Heute ist die dritte Single „Long Gone“ erschienen, und so langsam bin ich mir sicher, dass das neue Album ein ziemlicher Hammer wird.

Am 6. Februar 2026 erscheint „Tenterhooks“, das neue Album von Silversun Pickups. Die erste Single „The Wreckage“ war schon sehr überzeugend, und auch die zweite Auskopplung mit dem Titel „New Wave“ überzeugt. Klassischer Opener.

Jetzt melden sich die Indie-Helden mit der brandneuen Single „The Wreckage“ zurück, die überraschend zu dem ursprünglichen, rockigeren Sound der Band zurückkehrt und damit Lust auf das kommende Album Tenterhooks im Januar […]

A contemporary band I never saw live. While they've been here, maybe even on multiple occasions. If they ever come again I'll be front row because they rip live.
Silversun Pickups - Widow's Weeds
This is one of these records that sounds way better on vinyl than on Ivy Tops. 2x45 rpm helps a bit too I guess. And any new material on the horizon?

Currently Playing | Silversun Pickups's 2009 album "Swoon"
I love the whole album but "Growing Old Is Getting Old" is very relatable at this stage of my life.
