GLOBAL NEWS—After 3 Ep’s defining the contours of their aesthetic at the crossroads of influences between dream pop, slow core and post-rock, Pam Risourié released their debut album, “Days of Distortion.”
This first LP was recorded in Normandy by the band You Said Strange, mixed and produced by Lucas Ramos at OneTwoPassIt Studio (Guts, Frustration) and mastered by Simon Scott, the drummer of the iconic shoegaze band Slowdive.
Taking the form of an underground dive, like a dream breaking apart and echoing along walls of guitars, days of distortion deepens the universe of Pam Risourié ; it invites us to explore a mental landscape, through the prism of an introspective trip where feelings of absence, derealization and impersonality are put into perspective, in a sensitive and clair-obscur night.

A second single, High on a Wire is expected on March 3rd.
