Joe Imwalle Since forming an ambient country band ( Aux Meadows ) I’ve been exploring the genre on Bandcamp and finding many fantastic like minded bands. SUSS is a major favorite! I keep coming back to this album. Excellent job, guys!!

nofatclips 2nd listen: in a parallel universe, the Tangerine Dream are a country band writing songs about a parallel universe...

1st listen: subdued psychedelia that pretends to be harmless in order to get under your skin. Don't fight it! Favorite track: Home.

Charlie Moonbeam Another stunning collection of ambient washed-out space country instrumental music from the masters of the craft.

This record is somehow more delicate and spacious than Ghost Box.

Perfect music to play in the delicate hours of sunrise. Favorite track: Home.

about

While their first two albums, Ghost Box and High Line, explored panoramas that evoked the American West as well as the cosmic beyond, Promise--the third and latest album by SUSS on Northern Spy Records--takes a more personal journey that maps out the rocky terrain of the American dream. Writing, recording, and mixing during the pandemic quarantine, the members of SUSS used their music to come to grips with concepts such as “promise” and “hope” and what they could still mean in this day and age.

On Promise, the NYC quartet creates sonic landscapes using pedal steel, baritone guitar, ebow, harmonium, synths, loops and other Americana instrumentation. Drawing on influences from their younger years, SUSS has created music that evokes early psychedelic Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk and the seminal soundtrack work of John Barry. The result, which they call “pastoral psychedelicism,” is a music that is beautiful, haunting and challenging.
