Drawing inspiration from unsolved mysteries - inexplicable cattle mutilations, the presence of God, the impossibility of femininity - Samia examines how shadows can loom larger than their source. \"I noticed a pattern in my life of wanting to live up to the person I became in someone's head; you become a lot bigger with distance,\" she reflects, exploring the allure of existing as a fantasy. Through haunting harmonies and spectral imagery, the album seeks a path through that space between void and flesh-and-blood presence. Samia would like to be both, to be whole, to be impossible. Rich with layers that shift seamlessly from sparse folk to sweeping indie-pop epics, Bloodless explores Samia's relationship with a fragmented, symbolic version of Men-a patchwork of expectations and imagined standards she tried to meet, which ultimately shaped her sense of self. \"I've spent the past two decades unintentionally conflating men with my understanding of God,\" Samia explains. \"The person I became in order to impress this imagined figure is inseparable from who I am today. With this album, I've tried to confront that head-on.\" Written \u0026amp; produced in both North Carolina and her new home of Minneapolis throughout 2024, Bloodless finds Samia reuniting with longtime-collaborator Caleb Wright and Jake Luppen for the highly-anticipated follow-up to 2023's revered Honey, which followed Samia's 2020's breakthrough debut The Baby. Across these thirteen songs, Samia grapples with the hollow form she once embodied - a vessel that gained value through it's own absence, until playing dead became it's own form of life. With Bloodless, she endeavors to unearth the self buried beneath these carefully constructed personas, ultimately reaching a place of acceptance for her whole, imperfect being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 1.5em;\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eTRACKS:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be added\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long will shipping take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem is In Stock\/Inbound\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem is on Pre-Order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem is on Backorder\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrders will ship within 1 day of being available\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrders will ship near or on release date, as they are checked in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrders will ship as they become available, and may take 2-12 weeks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"SAMIA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45162133029022,"sku":"0855579007604","price":25.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0560\/8321\/8590\/files\/0855579007604.jpg?v=1741147622","url":"https:\/\/soundslikevinyl.com\/products\/samia-bloodless-vinyl-lp","provider":"SoundsLikeVinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
