Austrian ritual wave ensemble The Devil & The Universe return with their seventh album Occult Pleasures, released via Swiss Dark Nights. Blending dark wave, cinematic electronics and occult aesthetics, the band expands their sonic ritual with vocal performances from key figures in the dark alternative scene. This time, the focus on spiritualistic and occult practices is the common thread of the new record.

“In The Garden” explores the fragility of identity and the struggle to reconnect with a version of yourself that feels lost to time. It reflects on memories that may carry a certain weight of trauma, yet they linger not as entirely bad, but as a bittersweet taste of something irreplaceable, moments you can never relive but will always hold close. Diesein is the solo music project of Laslo Antal from the post new wave duo Sixth June. |
