dEUS return with a new album on September 19th. ‘Keep You Close’ is the follow up to 2008’s ‘Vantage Point’ and was recorded at the band’s own studio in their home city of Antwerp over a six month period with producers David Botrill and Adam Noble.
As the title suggests, ‘Keep You Close’ sees lead singer and lyricist Tom Barman react to ‘Vantage Point’ with a determination to return the band to a more personal lyrical style and a warmer musical approach. Whilst still immensely proud of ‘Vantage Point’, Tom felt that its follow up should move away from that album’s ‘very loud, in your face’ sound. Consequently, much of the focus of ‘Keep You Close’ has been to develop a sound that embraces a more organic and spacious dynamic.
