Description
First full length record from songwriter Augusta Koch after the breakup of Cayetana in 2017.
Safe Sins, the debut record from Philadelphia band Gladie, begins with a prayer: I close my eyes, pretend to pray/That this shame would just fuck off today, sings Augusta Koch, her familiar timbre floating atop a wave of bleary-eyed synths on opener Pray. Its a gentle, hymnal introduction to a record that ducks from jangly power pop to plucky indie rock, scrappy electronic psych jams to swaying shoegaze. The record borrows its title from Kochs personal poetry theme book: Safe Sins is a place of safety, acceptance, and progress. It is a record about isolation, loss, and dismantling shame and grief through self-analysis.
