Dive into the industrial heartbeat of New York City with Been Stellar’s debut album ‘Scream From New York, NY’. The band unpacks the ambient noise and sonic screams that have shaped their music.

Emerging from the city that never sleeps, Been Stellar embodies the unrelenting spirit of New York with their debut album, ‘Scream From New York, NY’. From the cacophony of the cityscape, they’ve crafted an auditory experience that captures both the chaos and the beauty of their home turf. Let’s delve into their journey and the sights and sounds that inspired their distinctive sound.

  • Carving Out Their Own Sound: Against the backdrop of a city saturated with noise, Been Stellar has managed to find a unique sonic niche, taking cues from a plethora of influences, from Sonic Youth’s punk-infused melodies to Radiohead’s introspective lyrical landscapes. Their music is a testament to the vibrant, if not chaotic, life in NYC.
  • New York’s Sonic Backdrop: Sam Slocum, the band’s vocalist, muses on the omnipresence of sounds that shape their reality. ‘In a place like New York, you hear screams all the time,’ he observes, highlighting the everyday’s common, yet startling, auditory tapestry woven throughout their tracks.
  • A Checkerboard of Relationships and Music: The members’ deep-rooted friendships have catalyzed their creative process, transforming hiccups into harmony and fostering a collective effort that resonates with listeners.
  • Dan Carey’s Studio Touch: In the hands of producer Dan Carey, ‘Scream From New York, NY’ blossomed into a work that mirrors the complexities and contradictions of urban existence. The result? A record that truly encapsulates the essence of the Big Apple, down to its core.
  • Themes of Connection and Disconnection: At the heart of the album lies an exploration of modern solitude amidst a populous city. Lyrics weave through the fabric of urban isolation, crafting an introspective narrative that resonates far beyond the bustling sidewalks of New York.

Been Stellar proves that amidst the city’s constant clamor, they can channel the noise into something that is not just heard, but felt. ‘Scream From New York, NY’ stands as a raw portrait of New York, painted with the brushstrokes of indie rock and the shades of human experience that only a city like this could inspire.
