But I see what they mean, there’s an ethereal vulnerability which contrasts to the producers industrial edge.” Says Marie- Claire of Glaswegian atmospheric rock act SEIL LIEN. Due release their debut album ‘Shatter’ on April 17th 2020, SEIL LIEN is one of the most unique artists to come out of Scotland, and the brain child of an uncompromising underground experimentalist. A preview of the record can be heard on the new single ‘It’s Love That Brought You Here’ released today, with an accompanying video available to view on YouTube HERE. WATCH: ‘It’s Love That Brought You Here’ via YouTube With a solid fanbase built up over years of hard graft playing live, SEIL LIEN’s debut album ‘Shatter’ has been a long-awaited follow up to the aptly named ‘A Little While More EP’ released in 2018. Hitting the ground running, SEIL LIEN were thrust into the public eye when in 2018, through the publishing arm of Ninja Tune, the song ‘A Little While More’ was synced in a series of Boots ‘Inspirational Women’ campaign advertisements. Lead member Marie-Claire described the experience as “amazing, unexpected and life affirming!” and the catalyst to get the debut album finished. The final product is eight songs of uncompromising artistry a total of 3 years in the making, and a sound that could be described as the distillation of prolonged periods of improvisation and experimentation.
