{"product_id":"particles-of-faith","title":"Particles of Faith","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Hello It’s Me\" sings Signe Marie Rustad in her crystal clear, inimitable voice. And with that, she’s back, three years after the release of her successful third album, \u003ci\u003eWhen Words Flew Freely\u003c\/i\u003e. The above lyric is taken from a song bearing the same name, the first single off Rustad’s fourth album, \u003ci\u003eParticles of Faith\u003c\/i\u003e. Known for her poetic lyrics and vivid songwriting, and backed by a tight knit band that’s been with her for years, Rustad’s new album offers a natural transition from the already classic \u003ci\u003eWhen Words Flew Freely (WWFF\u003c\/i\u003e). However, \u003ci\u003eParticles of Faith\u003c\/i\u003e also brings something completely new and fresh. WWFF presented a broader, organic and piano-driven Laurel Canyon-sound, and less of the americana sound present on Rustad’s first two releases. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eParticles of Faith is harder to place in any genre, other than in the broader singer-songwriter tradition, helmed by pioneers such as Joni Mitchell and Carole King. But Rustad also points to a host of other inspirations. Alternative pop\/rock from the 80’s and 90’s have always been a big influence on Rustad, and on Particles of Faith, this is more evident than ever. R.E.M., Fiona Apple, Crowded House and Tori Amos were important components both in the artist’s record collection and on her TV screen via MTV. Seeing as this era was also the golden age of the saxophone, it was only natural to include a three-minute-long sax solo, courtesy of acclaimed Norwegian jazz musician Harald Lassen – a solo that “made me cry” says Rustad. The album is produced by Rustad along with indie pop hero Kenneth Ishak. “This is the music coursing through my veins,” says Rustad about the album.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Die With Your Boots On","offers":[{"title":"Black CD","offer_id":50441532768587,"sku":"2008713","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50441533325643,"sku":"2008714","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Particles_of_Faith_a7cccea3_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726982004","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/particles-of-faith","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
