Suffer Well releases new single ‘Came Around’
Los Angeles post-punk project Suffer Well releases the single “Came Around” through God Complex, streaming now on Spotify.
Los Angeles musician and filmmaker Alex Delgado released “Came Around” under the name Suffer Well, through God Complex. The single is streaming now on Spotify.
A post-punk song about betrayal
“Came Around” follows the interval between believing life has settled into place and realizing someone has been quietly undermining it. Delgado has cited Joy Division, New Order and Interpol as influences on Suffer Well’s sound, which pairs rhythmic discipline with an unsettled, anxious vocal. “The song starts with finally feeling like your life is coming together, then someone comes along and upends it,” Delgado said of the track, which is set at the moment its narrator spots the person responsible for his unravelling life standing in a crowd.
Delgado both performs and directs under the Suffer Well name, overseeing the project’s music and visual identity himself. “Came Around” is available to stream on Spotify.
