{"product_id":"in-a-bar-under-the-sea-1","title":"In A Bar, Under The Sea","description":"In 1994 and 1996, dEUS released Worst Case Scenario and In a Bar Under the Sea, two albums that didn’t just introduce a band, but quietly rewired the possibilities of European alternative rock. Worst Case Scenario arrived fully formed yet thrillingly unstable: wiry guitars, fractured rhythms, and Tom Barman’s half-spoken, half-sung narratives drifting between paranoia and pop. Songs like “Suds \u0026amp; Soda” and “Via” felt less like singles than dispatches from a band inventing its own internal logic in real time.\n\nIn a Bar Under the Sea pushed that logic to its breaking point. Looser, stranger, and more communal in spirit, the album folded jazz phrasing, off-kilter pop hooks, and moments of near-chaos into something that still somehow cohered. It captured a band refusing to settle, embracing excess and experimentation at a moment when European guitar music rarely dared to sound this restless or this alive.\n\nNow, widely regarded as Belgium’s most influential rock band, dEUS \u0026amp; [PIAS] Recordings will rerelease both albums as 3LP and 2CD expanded 30th Anniversary sets, including long lost B-Sides and rarities.","brand":"dEUS","offers":[{"title":"2xLP, Album + LP + S\/Edition, 30t [2026] [Europe] [M | M]","offer_id":53378635792721,"sku":"4087291624","price":49.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/1860\/4881\/files\/NjAtNzY1MS5qcGVn.jpg?v=1774401270","url":"https:\/\/www.emprecords.be\/products\/in-a-bar-under-the-sea-1","provider":"El Mono Pintado Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
