{"product_id":"brutalist","title":"Brutalist","description":"\u003cp\u003eSace6's debut album Brutalist, released May 8, 2026 via Sumerian Records, takes its name and conceptual framework from the brutalist art movement, which exposes raw structure rather than concealing it. True to that ethos, the 11-track record lays emotional architecture bare through crushing sonic contrasts that fuse R\u0026amp;B intimacy with metal intensity. Tracks like \"besotted,\" \"basorexia,\" \"allured,\" and \"covet\" explore desire at its most unstable — attraction sliding into obsession, jealousy, and emotional disorientation — while the production swings between euphoric danceability and punishing heaviness. The lead single \"ego\" earned recognition from both Billboard and Kerrang! and received rotation on SiriusXM Octane.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album's second half turns inward, with tracks like \"dolorous,\" \"fabulist,\" and \"perfidy\" examining identity fractures, manipulation, and the slow realization of betrayal. Standout moment \"uneven\" pairs ethereal, angelic vocals against devastating screams to portray love as an addictive imbalance where devotion collapses into self-erasure, while \"nepenthe\" uses escapist euphoria as a temporary mask for unresolved grief. As Get Some Magazine notes, the sequencing flows like one continuous emotional spiral — deliberate transitions, no filler, and every track serving a distinct purpose in the project's emotional architecture. The result is a raw, relatable debut that has been called a zero-skip record and a strong contender for album of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ Album","offer_id":53589040267578,"sku":"38329","price":17.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Metallic Silver Vinyl","offer_id":53589040365882,"sku":"38330","price":38.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-06-10_at_2.13.13_PM.jpeg?v=1781115456","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/brutalist","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
