Psapp Announce Details Of Their Fourth Album 'What Makes Us Glow' Out 11th November 2013

Psapp are pleased to confirm details of their exquisite new album 'What Makes Us Glow', which will be released onNovember the 11th through The state51 Conspiracy.
 
Comprised of feline wilding troubadours Carim Clasmann and Galia Durant, Psapp met 12 years ago in a basement filled with plastic fish, compressors and elderly cushions and have been making music ever since.
 
'What Makes Us Glow' is a vast hypercolour psychedelic whirl of an album, with intricate orchestration, layered vocals and a pioneering spirit. These songs thrum and buzz, they glow. In preparation for the release, the duo invite fans to tweet them using the hashtag'#thingsthatmakeyouglow' and state, what things make you glow.
 
Scored with home built instruments, What Makes Us Glow is bursting with swampy drones of recorded ambience and plenty of raw sounds - Psapp relish in combining unusual musical elements (this record includes Galia's rhythmic snores, boxes of writhing mealworms, their homemade boneaphone - a marimba made from bones - and the groans of milk-laden cows) alongside the more standard instruments: piano, violin, oud and organs.
 
Lyrically it is an exercise in emotional stocktaking. These are songs of attachment, detachment and the slow realisation of what is essential. This is not the sound of a band finding their way; it is the sound of band having arrived at their destination. There is a powerful sense that they are in full control of their sound and revelling in the possibilities.
 
Some bands disappear, either dissolving into a mess of acrimony or slowly drifting apart as life tugs them in different directions but for Psapp, the pull to continue creating together conquered distance and all the complications of being alive.
 
While the drivers for its creation may have changed - out with all nighters, in with daylight and an appreciation of family and dedicated musicianship, the inherent joy of being together and creating magic little songs still shines through.
 
Psapp are eternally glued together whether they like it or not.
 
This is What Makes Us Glow.
