Listen to the shimmering new track “Harbor and Rail” from United Waters! ‘Coma to Coma’ is out Nov. 8th on Drawing Room Records

Brian Sullivan says about the track: “Somewhere in there is a Bruce Springsteen song with a bum leg. Just cruising with a slight lag every cycle. It can be about a lot of things...transportation, beach towns, campaign stumping, commerce...there’s definitely not enough songs about stevedores anymore. But it’s definitely 3 minutes of shimmering guitar curtains chugging along.” Their fourth LP Coma to Coma arrives Nov. 8th on Drawing Room Records!

NYC’s United Waters are back with a new single “Arrowheads” off their upcoming LP ‘Coma to Coma’ out Nov. 8th!

Hear the new single via Raven Sings the Blues! “Still hung on the songwriting of Brian Sullivan (Mouthus, Spectre Folk, Death Unit) the band occupies a strange niche between the kind of pulsating electronic-snipped post-punk that Total Control purveys — stripped raw but seemingly hovering six inches above the rest of us — and the slightly fuzzed bedroom pop that might have shown up on Sacred Bones and Captured Tracks in their infancy.” Listen HERE

Cerberus: United Waters - Your First Ever River

Cerberus: United Waters – Your First Ever River

Brian Sullivan’s latest raft trip as United Waters has taken a strange deviation. Your First Ever River still retains the aquatic production of its recent predecessors (2014’s Sunburner and 2017’s The Narrows), but Sullivan has pushed himself far from the muddy banks and dropped his anchor straight through the mighty logs that guide his vessel. Ten minute opener “My Geology” lodges itself in the…

Cerberus: United Waters – The Narrows

When Brain Sullivan emerged out of the ravaged cocoon of Mouthus in 2011 with his first release as United Waters, it was as if he dropped from the highest limb into the deepest trench in the middle of the ocean. It continued on 2014’s Sunburner, an album that still feels overlooked and similarly overwhelming with its vast tides rolling endlessly on the shore. Another 3 years has come and gone,…

United Waters : The Narrows

United Waters : The Narrows

I won’t pretend to know much about Mouthus. I won’t because I don’t. I know nothing about the noise rock duo that hailed from Brooklyn, New York and who released close to 200 LPs in the course of 10 years(probably wasn’t that many records.) Well, I do know something. I know that Mouthus’ guitarist Brian Sullivan formed United Waters and released their first album Your First Ever River in 2011. I…

Sunburner is a very different, special album in my opinion. Everything is muffled, and everything has a purpose. The songs are composed of mostly guitars and drums and Brian Sullivan's voice. The lyrics are well made but you will strain to hear what he's saying through the fog and mist of the tracks. Blue Weaver is the first song on the album. Like all the songs, it is very well crafted in being somewhat beautiful yet carrying a Mouthus feeling. Well, that was my attempt to describe this music. It's really hard to explain why I like music, but trust me - you will like this.
