about

"Blending elements of goth post-punk of the 80s, reminiscent of The Cure, Clan Of Xymox, and French coldwave, the band create, with a distinctive use of dazzling hypnotic synths, throbbing dense basslines, high pitched, glistening searing guitars and sturdy rhythms over achingly melancholic voice, an infectious melodic modern dark sound of frozen, sombre intensity and brooding stern beauty to great effect.

In "Больничные койки/Hospital beds", along the closing track "Плохие сны/Bad dreams’ my favorite one, repetitive sparse beats and profound and sorrowful guitar riffs are pierced by sparkling gut-wrenching twisting reverbed-out guitar melodies and spacious icy bright winding synth flows that wax and wane loaded by dense bleak bass pulsations injecting a dramatic ineluctable sense of melancholy and pain embodied by the intoxicating magnetic tone of the plaintive vocals drowned in devastation, desolation and utter fascination into a first breath of life." (Whitelight//Whiteheat)

Polycythemia Russia

Russian duo is mysterious, hailing from the middle of nowhere and recreating the gloom lined with unique, somehow joyful and melancholy melodies

Lebanon Hanover is a classic amongst classics, and this album is one of their best in my opinion. When I learned it was being re-released on vinyl, AND it would be a signed copy, I had to jump on it, it will be a great addition to my collection. ghaseloff
