This is the debut release outside South Korea for Busan’s Say Sue Me and a compilation of the 2014 debut album [We’ve Sobered Up] pared with the 2015 EP [Big Summer Night] and a bonus new song from 2017. What does it sound like? Aquatically themed reverb soaked melancholia. The bands practice room is located in five minutes on foot from Gwangalli Beach in Busan but it’s the love of 60’s surf that adds a lust for the liquidic, tethered with a healthy 90’s US indie rock inspiration. Surfgaze became a genre in recent years but acts that play stand-alone pure surf plus indie rock/pop with added twang are decidedly rare. Say Sue Me are inspired in equal measure by 60’s Surf and 90’s US/UK Indie Rock and it’s that odd mesh of Dick Dale, The Ventures with Pavement, Sebadoh, Seam, Yo La Tengo, Mazzy Star, Jesus & The Mary Chain that makes quite unique. The combination feels natural with admirable guitar skills on display, but it’s Sumi’s low breathy, talky vocals and frank lyrical exposure of her human insecurities that’s the real charmer. Who are they? Friends since 5th grade Jae Young (Bass) and Kim Byungkyu (guitar) were introduced to drummer kang Semin and then they heard Sumi’s speaking voice and decided she should be the singer. Sumi Choi was a natural at songwriting. Formed in 2012 they recorded their first album in 2014 ‘We’ve Sobered Up’ and the ‘Big Summer Nights’ EP in 2015. They played Zandari Cheoyong and Busan International Rock Festivals and won fans throughout East Asia. Semin, the band’s drummer who also illustrated the artwork and is sadly in a semi-comtose state after a fall in 2016. As there is no NHS in Korea, the band, their label ‘Elecric Muse’ & fans raised over £11,000 for his healthcare and hope he can recover with treatment. Casey McKeever recorded all the songs and mastered them along with Kim Sanghyuk. Casey now sit’s in on drums on the new 2017 track ‘Michelle Marie’ which is cover of a duo featuring Casey & Semin called ‘Barbie Doll’s’. ‘One Question’ is a ‘Genius’ cover, an act that Casey also drums in. The ‘Michelle Marie’ track ends with a little taste of a Barbie Dolls to celebrate and keep Semin involved.
