HAYDEN THORPE
Diviner
2019 UK 🇬🇧 pressing

Last week, I posted one of my favorite records of the past 15 years in Wild Beasts’ Present Tense.

Today, I found THIS beautiful gem in a “Reduced For Clearance” bin, and I could not be more siked about it.

This is the debut solo album from Beasts frontman Hayden Thorpe, which was released in 2019. These songs have the same kind of magic that the songs on Present Tense had for me.

The album’s opening title track is absolutely beautiful, and from there, it’s steady as she goes.

Excellent well-written songs, produced to perfection, all anchored by what I feel is one of the most unique, incredible, and UNDER APPRECIATED voices of the past few decades.

Awesome find.

🌿 #HaydenThorpe (#DominoRecordingCo) shares "Doom Orchid," a haunting track inspired by Orford Ness' eerie history. Reflecting on destruction, desire, and humanity’s dark impulses, it’s a love letter to Ness—both beautiful and unsettling. Listen here: https://go.stereobar.net/9jl42i

Hayden Thorpe - Doom Orchid - stereobar.net

Hayden Thorpe delves into the mysteries of Orford Ness with “Doom Orchid,” a track that further unravels the nuclear-haunted landscape he explored on last year's Ness. The song emerges from the shadow of this former atomic weapons testing site in Suffolk, where the ghosts of the Cold War still whisper through abandoned bunkers.
