Sulu
Babylon have quickly cemented their name as one of Yorkshires hardest working
exports lately. They have been touring excessively since the release of their
last album Arguments and have finally had the chance to settle down and work on
their next upcoming release which features many fan favourites from the shows
they have been playing over the years.
Track listing.
See it in Colour
Free
Children of Sailors
Liar
This is How
Save our Souls
See it in Colour is a track we know
very well. From the early days of us starting out we recording an exclusive
acoustic version with the band and it is brilliant to hear the final product
after all these years.
It is
a perfect way to open the EP up, a fan favourite and a powerful anthem that demonstrates
Sulu Babylon’s many talents and qualities. It shows raw power and determination
for the time they have spent on the release and paves way for the rest of the
tracks to follow suit.
Free is the feel good anthem on the EP
and a welcomed track for the up coming summer. It has a warm feel and a real
party vibe to it as well as having the signature Sulu Babylon rock feel, if any
track on the release is going to be massive on release I highly tip it to be
this one.
Children of Sailors is a new track for
us and slows the tempo down temporarily before erupting into a powerful chorus.
Again the track demonstrates Sulu’s wide range of experimental/alternative rock
and I think it is safe to say that the band have put a huge stamp on the genre
with their own genre and take on psychedelic alternative rock.
Liar is another favourite from the live
set and again calms the tempo down for some easily listening. It shows that
Sulu aren't all about fast paced and heavy riffs but that they can also take it
down a notch and make music that everybody can sway to and enjoy.
This is How I think this is my
favourite on the EP, its loud, its meaty, it has parts to chant along to and it
is everything Sulu Babylon stand for, This is How Sulu do music and they do it
so fucking well.
Save our Souls This was actually
released as part of the singles release put out by the band not too long ago
and has been in my collection for quite some time. I think it is a perfect way
to tie up the anticipated release, it’s a fan favourite, its well known amongst
the following and is brilliant for a sing a long.
Any
fan of the band will be eagerly waiting for this music to come out and we can
honestly say that the wait is worth it. The band put everything into their
music and this release really shows that. An excellent release from Yorkshire’s
finest psychedelic alternative rockers.
5/5
