Montreal’s SUUNS have announced a new album, The Breaks, which will be out September 6 via Joyful Noise. “The Breaks became sort of the opposite of our last record,” says the band’s Joseph Yarmush, referencing 2021’s The Witness. “Nothing was really played together. We were caught in a little bit of a wormhole, trying new things, throwing different things against the wall.”
That wormhole led SUUNS to ethereal dreampop territory crafted from loops, synths and samples, as you can hear on the album’s euphoric title track. Watch the video, directed by Alexander Ortiz, below.
SUUNS are on a little Quebec tour this week and have European dates in September. All are listed below.
