SeeYouSpaceCowboy - The Romance Of Affliction

Label: Pure Noise Records

Released: 5th November 2021

Rating: ★★★★★

Two weeks after SeeYouSpaceCowboy finished recording their second full-length ‘The Romance Of Affliction, frontwoman Sgarbossa nearly died from a drug overdose. It’s that kind of darkness that envelops an album that finds comfort in the collapse - a brutal struggle to pull through and find meaning in chaos.

If nothing else, it’s honest. Personal lyrics delivered with a hard punch to the gut, it’s anything but loud for the sake of it. Every scream and shout is earned - a release of something heartfelt. In your face, tense and essential, it’s an album of juxtapositions that makes perfect sense.
