About this deal

Review: Cigarettes After Sex front man Greg Gonzalez puts his lovely voice front and centre on this atmospheric dream pop record as he works his way through a series of different fantasies. Elsewhere, Gonzalez mounts movies in miniature with the photographic references of ‘Flash’ and Fitzcarraldo echoes of ‘Opera House’, a song so lovingly languid it could, conceivably, soundtrack a man hauling ships over mountains for love.

Later, this was palmed off to Partisan Record Club members as the December 2023 shipment (with a Partisan badge.

The thing I like the most is that this sounds like chill out, love music but listen a little closer. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).The best tracks here are 'Apocalypse' { even though it cornily rhymes "lips" with its title,} and the moody, hypnotic 'Each Time You Fall In Love'. After the phenomenal online break-out success of Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You Baby, from the band’s debut EP 1, the Brooklyn transplant (originally from El Paso) wanted to project his worldview on to a bigger screen, a broader canvas.

Cigarettes After Sex frontman Greg Gonzalez had a clear vision for his band's gorgeously cinematic debut album. The last ten years have seen no shortage of bands with their delay pedals set to stun intent on capturing an aura of dreamlike radiance.The only issue is an added layer of bubble wrap would have reduced my anxiety when I opened the package. Alongside keyboardist Phillip Tubbs, bassist Randy Miller and drummer Jacob Tomsky, the ability of Gonzalez and his band to set a scene and sustain a mood reels you in deeply. Fiz questão de tirar fotos da frente e do verso do vinil porque senti falta disso nas avaliações que vi enquanto escolhia o meu disco.

Recorded during night time sessions in a mansion on the Spanish island of Mallorca, the album is a lush, cinematic meditation on the many complex facets of love - meeting, wanting, needing, losing.

Bubblegum” and “Stop Waiting” are the latest pair of singles from Cigarettes After Sex, and their first new music of 2023. The songs are a perfect distillation of the starry-eyed atmosphere that the band has claimed as their signature in the six years since the release of their globally successful self-titled debut. A good album to play at bedtime, for sleep or love, but also for moments of reflection and to facilitate a soothing atmosphere. Promising more blissful, narcoleptic dream-pop after the success of his early singles, Greg Gonzalez delivers his second Cigarettes After Sex album, Cry.

Cigarettes After Sex frontman Greg Gonzalez had a clear vision for his band’s gorgeously cinematic debut album. Packed with an exquisite, opiate balladry at once heartfelt and heartbroken, it's hard to tell whether this is exactly what you need to hear when living through your blue period or precisely what you shouldn't listen to.

This is particularly evident on woozy opener 'K', 'Sunsetz', and the steamy 'Sweet', whereby the listener becomes a fly on the wall to the colourful sexual imagery. You'll hear a slightly brighter and more optimistic song than the A-side, but it's still deeply morunful, with Greg Gonzalez singing of the faded memories of cut ties, sunscreen and summer dresses. Just as you're almost fully entranced by the wave of mesmerizing melodies pouring from the speakers your ears prick up. Behind billions of streams and over 17M monthly listeners on Spotify, Cigarettes After Sex continue to defy what it means to be one of the biggest cult bands in the world. The tail-side's 'Stop Waiting', meanwhile, is ever-more hypnotic, and clearly intends to be the hidden gem of the two.
