Discover Oliver Sim's Solo Debut: Hideous Bastard
Dive into the hauntingly beautiful world of Oliver Sim, the talented songwriter, bassist, and vocalist of The xx, as he makes his solo debut with the highly anticipated album Hideous Bastard. Produced by the acclaimed Jamie xx, this album is a profound exploration of Sim's journey through shame, fear, and masculinity, all while celebrating his love for horror films.
Over the span of two years, Sim has crafted a collection of tracks that not only confront his personal experiences but also seek to liberate himself from the burdens of the past. As he poignantly shares,
"I haven’t written the record to dwell, but rather to free myself of some of the shame and fear that I’ve felt for a long time." This transformative process has imbued the music with a sense of joy, making it a compelling listen from start to finish.
