LP version. Red vinyl.
Mark Peters
releases a second solo album
Red Sunset Dreams
on Sonic Cathedral. The follow-up to his hugely acclaimed debut
Innerland
(SCR 094CD/LP, 2018), which was one of Rough Trade's albums of the year when it came out in 2018, it features a number of guest musicians, including former
One Dove
singer and songwriter
Dot Allison
and pedal steel legend
BJ Cole
. Like its predecessor,
Red Sunset Dreams
is an album about an imaginary landscape. Whereas
Innerland
was an introspective psycho-geographic trip inspired by Mark's move back to his hometown of Wigan and the memories it stirred up,
Red Sunset Dreams
looks outwards, across the Atlantic to the United States of America, but very much through a UK prism; a representation of the subconscious Americana that's buried deep in our collective psyches. The result is an incredibly evocative trip through the landscapes of old Western movies, exploring their links with the North West of England while touching on wider themes such as isolation, freedom and dementia. Sonically, it builds on the palette of the previous record with instrumentation equally inspired by the ascendant ambient Americana movement and classic country-rock. As a result it ends up somewhere between
Acetone
's peerless
I Guess I Would
,
Diamond Head
-era
Phil Manzanera
and the dusty instrumentals on the second disc of
David Sylvian
's 1986 classic
Gone To Earth
. Mark has spent the four years since
Innerland
recording and releasing
Destiny Waiving
, his third collaboration with
Ulrich Schnauss
, and recently followed up 2020's new
Engineers
recordings (the ambient perambulations of
Pictobug
) with a reissue series of the band's much sought -after early albums. He has recently put a brand-new band together and will be playing a series of live shows following the release of
Red Sunset Dreams
.
