With Earth Sequence, Sally Spitz tunnels into the DNA of ‘90s electronica and alt-rock, warping it into something raw, cinematic, and deeply personal. This isn’t just revivalism—it’s the sound of a generation that absorbed the era’s iconoclasm and spit it back out for a fragmented, hyper-modern world. Grunge’s harmonic tension collides with hip-hop’s cut-and-paste ethos, Smash Mouth-style retro-bops ripple against NIN-style industrial beats. Unpredictable and restless, the album constantly shifts before settling into anything familiar.
But Earth Sequence isn’t just nostalgia—it’s world-building. Created with longtime collaborator Beautiful Sam, each track unspools a new dimension: a cyberpunk rail yard (“Tag Your Sign”), an animistic Mad Max desert (“Faces”), a bug-sized micro-biome (“Lovebuzz”).
Beneath the swirling textures, the songwriting remains painstakingly rooted in tradition—tight, intentional, built to last. Spitz’s melodic instincts and evocative storytelling ground the album’s sonic experiments, making even its wildest moments feel timeless. Expansive yet intimate, urgent yet unhurried, Earth Sequence is a statement, a shift, a world unto itself.
