“Optograms” is the debut album by Corbeau Hangs after a release of 3 singles. This album is very much finding my sound and soul within the art of sound. Mixing various influences such as modern acts like Twin Tribes, She Past Away and other acts like Clan of Xymox, Pink Turns Blue. Mixing the rawness of post-punk with the ambience and grittiness of synths and drum machines. Optograms is an image extracted from the eye seen right before death. These are my sounds visualized right before death.

Introducing ‘Waxing Moon,’ the debut release from Berlin neo-nihilists, Noj. Waxing Moon takes the listener on a tense trip, pulsating through 9 chunky tweaked out tracks of industrial post punk whose combo of punishing percussion, antagonistic basslines, broken glass guitar and cool, bloodless vocals conjure visions of a cyberpunk version of The Birthday Party with Trent Reznor on synth, produced by a young Rob Zombie. An undeniably German swagger is present throughout, decorating a chilling Carpenter-esque sense of foreboding. Like sisyphus rolling the stone, each song gathers momentum as if it may build on a promise, keeping the listener in anticipation of some great crescendo or divine reason for being… before abruptly ending with the realisation that the journey was the anticipation, hopes dashed, collapsing new buildings. Lésion Française is an electro-punk and synthpop music band inspired by the pangs of a decadent Western society. Godard de Vilmor and his twin brothers unite in crazy rounds and ritornellos, with the help of their synthesizers to straighten out the modern world with Pieds-de-Nez. First degree? Second degree? Thousandth degree? No one knows the limit of what is possible! Following their first US tour in over a decade, Lebanon Hanover returns with a soul-stirring double A-side single release, marking their first new material since the captivating 2020 album, ‘Sci-Fi Sky.’ Now, the enigmatic duo of William Maybelline and Larissa Iceglass beckons listeners into unventured sonic domains, intricately weaving folk-driven acoustic dream pop with the vulnerable essence of post-punk in a contemplative exploration of life’s ephemeral yet profound nature. |
