Decius Vol. II (Splendour & Obedience)

Description

Composed of Lias Saoudi (Fat White Family), Luke and Liam May (Trashmouth Records), and Quinn Whalley (Paranoid London, Warmduscher), Decius is a supergroup that tackles everyday banalities. With electrifying sets at Berghain, Glastonbury (Block 9's NYC Downlow), and Opium Club, the band has garnered the favor of Dixon, 2manydjs, Honey Dijon, Iggy Pop, and even Depeche Mode. With Vol. II (Splendour & Obedience), Decius pushes the boundaries of their provocative aesthetic. Blending house, disco, techno, and a backdrop of brutal acid, the album unfolds like an ode to unfiltered desire. Tracks like Birth of A Smirk, with its sweaty intensity, evoke troubled nights, while Queen of 14th St draws from Detroit sounds tinged with London decadence. The first single Walking In The Heat offers a steamy groove, reminiscent of a lascivious Kraftwerk, while Ghent revives the pure acid of 1988. This new opus, dark and sensual, stands as a celebration of unrestrained pleasure, a musical selection dedicated to sweaty bodies and endless nights.
