Things That I Confuse is the new four-song EP by Swedish shoegazers, Spunsugar, the follow up to the band's successful full length, Drive-through Chapel from late 2020.
Without losing its sharp guitar-laden shoegaze edge, new single, Hatchet, sees the band taking a richer, more electronic direction, harking back to the genre's popular facet which was perfectly consummated during the nineties.
In relation to the new EP, Spunsugar state: "The songs on Things That I Confuse pretty much wrote themselves in a frenzy. Still, they sound more Spunsugar than ever. It's still as timeless and nostalgic as it is fresh. The four songs consist of two more poplike tracks and two that have kept the more noisy aggressive sound that has become a staple of the band. Now there's an added layer of an icy lo-fi feel. References to giallo films and Japanese movie monsters work to tell stories of close relationships, trauma and regret that keeps one up at night. Every second is thought through, there's no unnecessary fluff. Every note serves a purpose on this EP."
