REVIEW: Savannah Pope – ‘Pandemonium’
Throughout her dynamic career to date, LA-based dark-pop artist Savannah Pope has always been one to stray away from convention in order to pursue a more innovative direction. Her material to date has already earned her countless praise and acclaim, all looking to build upon the enigmatic foundations she has set for herself. And after returning with a flurry of impactful outings these last few months, she is back once again with her eagerly-awaited new studio album ‘Pandemonium’, a record that continues that adventurous spirit she is known for.
Described as a concept album about the heart-wrenching loss of a friend to suicide, ‘Pandemonium’ sees her embark on one of her most ambitious projects to date. Working alongside Sean Beavan, known for shaping the sound of Nine Inch Nails, her latest work finds her in this brilliantly emotive guise, one that sees her spread her creative wings further than ever before. Blending this heady mix of rip-roaring guitar grooves with a neo-classical tones and modern pop sensibilities, Savannah Pope is returning to the fold with a truly anthemic offering here, creating something that stands out as brilliantly unique on the scene.
While the previous singles ‘Big Black Hole’, ‘Melancholic Goddess’ and ‘Sick’ certainly gave us an idea of what to expect, hearing ‘Pandemonium’ in its entirety elevates those releases to their highest heights. Brimming with this unbridled power and emotion at every turn, she is certainly looking to turn some heads with this one.
