After announcing its forthcoming album, respected Montreal band SUUNS returns to share “Doreen,” the second single from The Breaks (Joyful Noise Recordings/Secret City Records), out September 6, 2024. Accompanied by a self-directed music video of uncannily down-sampled driving footage, “Doreen” is another first for the band: a vulnerable love ballad dispersing into an increasingly menacing synth.
“Doreen/Come to me in my dreams/And then you leave me”, sings vocalist/guitarist Ben Shemie. “The Doreen in question,” according to Shemie, “doesn’t per se symbolize a specific person, but the mysteries that inspire you to move forward, yet are never fully attained. It’s a futile quest, as thoughts, feelings, sounds, and images will eternally slip through your fingers, unbound from action or creation.” “Doreen” is SUUNS’ affecting serenade to oblivion.
