When the ghosts of the past come to haunt us, are they real or figments of our imagination? This is one of the questions raised by THIEF’s melancholic candlelight video featuring the title track of the Los Angeles-based experimental electronic project’s forthcoming album „Bleed, Memory„, which is scheduled for release on April 19, 2024.

THIEF comment: „In this trip hop ballad, harpsichord, and sawtooth oscillators sculpt the stage for the story of haunted memories of a love long lost“, mastermind Dylan Neal reveals. „My new album ‚Bleed, Memory‘ also serves as a means of reconciling my father’s dementia as I explored my own mind’s cunning to mix the real and the fantasy. Did you know that poltergeists don’t haunt a location, but a person? Memory is a poltergeist.“
