LISTEN TO CRUSH CRUSHER
IAN SWEET, the project of LA's Jilian Medford, has shared the album stream for her anticipated new album, Crush Crusher. Consequence of Sound, who premiered the stream today along with a Track By Track breakdown of the album penned by Medford, is saying across its 10 songs, Crush Crusher "runs emotional and sonic gambits, with moments of simmering vulnerability boiling over into rushes of loud, shoegazing catharsis." Crush Crusher is available for pre-order now and due out October 26th via Hardly Art.
IAN SWEET is kicking off a full US tour with Young Jesus tonight with a record release show at the Lodge Room in Highland Park. All dates below.
PRAISE FOR IAN SWEET:
"As IAN SWEET, Jilian Medford dabbles in the depths of anxiety and attempts to find something beautiful along the way... Crush Crusher finds the singer/guitarist at her most dissonant, mutating the sound around her to feel like it's traveled miles to get to her listener." - Pitchfork
"Some of her most emotionally intimate creations to date." - The FADER
"Emotionally complicated music that offers no easy answers... a heavy, gnarled exploration of self-sabotaging relationships." - Noisey
"Kinetic in a way that her previous work has only hinted at... It's always exciting to hear an artist release their best work yet, and that's exactly what Ian Sweet is doing on 'Hiding.'" - UPROXX
