Unwed Sailor
Heavy Age 2xLP
With 2019’s Heavy Age, Unwed Sailor released its loudest, darkest, and perhaps poppiest, release yet. Bolstered by the guitar touches of Dave Swatzell and two drummers, longtime member Matt Putman and Colin Blanton, the album finds Ford layering bass and keyboards to expand on Unwed Sailor’s already wide sonic range. Opener “Indian Paintbrush” blends psychedelic guitars with swooning new wave synths; “ACAXAO” recalls the lushness of The Cure. Meanwhile, songs like “Jealous Heart,” “Disintegrate,” and closer “When You Want Me There” throb with distortion—these are among the heaviest songs Unwed Sailor’s ever committed to record.
