I’m in a band with the amazing Paul Beat. We released our debut single in 2020 which was remixed by the deeply special Barry Adamson. This is what Louder Than War said about the track:

Louder Than War Review
Sultry debut release from Bristol based Saint Severin, arriving on ludicrously limited lathe cut vinyl courtesy of the Super 8 Singles Club, a venture operated by Paul Pascoe (ex-Beat Hotel) who together with visual artist, poet and film-maker Siena Barnes are releasing material as Saint Severin.
‘The Knife’ a sensuous ode to something that ought to be regulated throbs, and purrs in all the right places, taking its cue from a 60’s titty twister and piling on the evocative ultra-modern cyber night time filth with clanging guitar reverb, a bass that plumbs the depths of decency, whilst Barnes salaciously whispers “come on”… an invitation you’d be a fool to pass up.
Flip it over and we get non other than ex-Magazine and Bad Seed member Barry Adamson providing a remix; more regularly associated with film soundtracks, perhaps Adamson has held a hankering to soundtrack an ultra-noir porno romp?
Either way, he lets his bass roots take to the fore as this firmly secures you to a (no doubt) St. Andrew’s cross with shimmering distortion, all manner of electronic bleeps and pulses as he directs you through this tasty slice of erotica.
An excellent debut release, now if we only had some dance floors to bump & grind on!
