Product Overview
Puma Blue - In Praise Of Shadows (CD) ØIn Praise Of ShadowsÙ is a delirious dreamland of soulful vocals, DÙAngelo-ish guitars and muted electronic beats. Puma BlueÙs nocturnal, soul-searching sound was born from a decade in which the 25-year-old was plagued with insomnia. That certainly helps to explain the hazy, late-night Üvoicemail balladsÝ of the early EP releases that propelled him to prominence, earning him a reputation as affecting chronicler of unrequited love and inner turmoil. ItÙs an intimacy still present across ØIn Praise Of ShadowsÙ but thereÙs also a new maturity and lucidity to the way in which Allen deals with his demons and celebrates beauty across his debut album, influenced no doubt by his journey over the last two years in which a blossoming romance has finally helped him to sleep whilst a burgeoning career forced the previously bedroom-bound songwriter out into the open, driving him to find new perspectives on loss, love and everything in-between.
