Video: Sisyphus – “Alcohol”

Looks like the project known as s/s/s/ which features Sufjan StevensSon Lux, and Serengeti have changed their name to Sisyphus and with that will be releasing their self-titled debut album on March 18 to accompany an art display by Jim Hodges. The album is reportedly partially influenced by Hodges’ work, which should be pretty clear once you’ve seen the video/lyric video for album closer “Alcohol”. While the track starts off in a pretty straightforward and minimal manner it never the less kind of gets stuck in your head and by the end of the tune’s five-and-a-half minute running time Ryan Lott goes all out with the production.

Listen: Son Lux – “Lost It To Trying”


You may be familiar with Son Lux aka Ryan Lott’s work. As is a hip-hop producer, he’s made beats for the like’s of Busdriver but has also worked with the likes of Sufjan Stevens on the s/s/s/ project, and These New Puritans. "Lost It To Trying"  would fit someplace in the Sufjan Stevens world with its colorful orchestration and harmonies, good stuff for sure.
