The “grungegaze” pioneers entirely meet the moment on their first album in 10 years. The Doylestown Pennsylvania band once known as Daylight officially stepped away in 2016, after touring their album, “Ours is Chrome“, saying they wanted to pursue “things in our own personal lives.” For instance, bassist Joe Kane has been working as a carpenter since the break. But the band still popped up for one-offs here and there, to say nothing of co-guitarist/vocalists Taylor Madison and Jake Clarke starting the still-active offshoot Webbed Wing together. But now, Superheaven are really back, with an eponymous album like the rockers are who they’ve always been on their first studio album in a decade.
In the decade since Superheaven last released an album, they’ve become massively influential and bigger than ever. Their mix of post-hardcore, grunge, and shoegaze paved the way for what’s now often called “grungegaze,” and the TikTok-driven success of their especially shoegazy 2013 deep cut “Youngest Daughter” helped bring in a whole new generation of Superheaven fans.
With their self-titled comeback album, they totally meet the moment with an album that picks up where they left off and fits right in with the current scene of punk-informed, guitar-based, underground rock music that Superheaven themselves helped pave the way for.
