The Seshen's new album "Nowhere" is a raw and vulnerable expression of loss, estrangement, and stepping into the unknown. With a sound that blends electronic, R&B, and indie-pop, this Bay Area-based sextet has created a cohesive work that speaks to being in an unfamiliar space - feeling untethered to thethings you once knew.
Lead singer Lalin St. Juste's hauntingly beautiful vocals anchor the album, reflecting her personal journey through the complexities of love and loss. As a band, The Seshen has weathered their own storms, including the marriage and subsequent divorce of Lalin and Aki Ehara, two integral members. It is within this backdrop of personal growth and transformation that "Nowhere" finds its powerful resonance.
The band's intricate production work creates a sonic landscape that is both ethereal and grounded, capturing the essence of emotional turbulence and self-discovery. The profound impact of their experiences can be felt throughout the album, adding depth and authenticity to each track. "Nowhere" stands as a testament to the strength of The Seshen's connection as well as the band's ability to navigate changes and life's challenges while always supporting each other's growth.
Within the album's tapestry of sound, standout tracks such as "Hold Me," "Lost At Night," and "Waiting For Dawn" offer glimpses into the complexities of love, loss, and resilience. "Hold Me" captures the yearning for connection and the bittersweet struggle of reaching for it in the face of loss and change, mirroring theexperiences Lalin and Aki underwent in their relationship. "Lost At Night" delves into the profound realization that a relationship is at its beginning of theend, invoking feelings of uncertainty, introspection, and the pain of separation. "Waiting for Dawn" exposes therestlessness and tumultuous thoughts one experiences while grappling with grief and the aftermath of a significant life transition.
"Nowhere" not only showcases The Seshen's musical prowess but also serves as a testament to their personal growth. It offers a window into the changing nature of love, the fragility of human connections, and the different ways to embrace impermanence. This album marks the closing of one chapter and thebeginning of a new one for The Seshen, capturing their evolution as individuals and their resilience as a band. In "Nowhere," listeners will find a deeply honest and introspective musical journey, shaped by theexperiences of its members, including the profound impact of Lalin and Aki's marriage and divorce.
