Retrieved 14 July 2022.There are some dark and twisting roads in the Verve’s catalog, but few moments you could categorize as “aggressive.” And then there’s that sudden blast of guitar distortion that opens “The Sun, The Sea,” roaring in right after the last spectral wisps of “A Beautiful Mind” dissipate. It crashes in, you know, like a wave, staying true to half its title and that generally aqueous vibe that dominates A Storm In Heaven. For much of the rest of the album, though, any water-related descriptors would have to do with the fact that they’re the sort of songs characterized by a pretty opacity you want to let wash over you. “The Sun, The Sea,” rather, feels like hanging out in the eye of a hurricane, and then hanging out in the hurricane itself. Everything’s relatively calm for the verses, but there’s always something evidently roiling around the edges of the song. Those verses have an inevitable pull to them, always gesturing headlong into recurring, distorted ruptures of the chorus until the whole thing unravels into a sort of free-jazz-shoegaze coda. It’s gorgeous and haunting and cathartic all at once. The apocalyptic core of A Storm In Heaven, “The Sun, The Sea” is unique amongst the Verve’s other songs. Sure, they’d turn the guitars up elsewhere from time to time, but the guitars of “The Sun, The Sea” are elemental things. Like some of the best psychedelic songs, this hardly sounds like music made by humans, but it does sound like it’s capable of conjuring things beyond us.
