2021 reissue, 3×12″ LP, Warp Records.

Seefeel’s second studio album, their first for the feted Warp imprint, saw them expand on some of the ideas in their 1993 debut, continuing to embrace the lush soundscapes that typify shoegaze and rooting things in deep sub bass, while bringing fascinating new blueprints to the table. Which isn’t too surprising, given Succour landed in 1995, by which point the UK’s rave scene had managed to find a way into almost every aspect of youth and pop culture. Far from a dance music album, nevertheless the record has clear acid house influences, from soaring vocal cries through to intoxicatingly loose types of syncopated rhythm crafted from heavily detailed percussive sections, with tracks like ‘Vex’ taking us all the way to IDM. Exquisite explorations so far ahead of their time they still sound new almost 30 years later. – Juno
