My Review: Burning City - Burning City

Burning City - Burning City

It must be acknowledged that music often seduces, evokes, brings to mind, and conquers by its multiple capabilities. In the case of this German band, everything is highlighted, to the utmost power, as it is undeniable that, although nothing appears to be new, in the end we find ourselves inside an enormous cerebral/emotional and sensorial perimeter, which qualifies our existence for the reminders and power games established by the guitars, the robust harmony, the perverse and pleasant will of a vocal that knows how to be dreamy, while all the sadness holds us back. 

A pure Post-Punk that then lets itself be contaminated by an electronic feeling, ending up landing in a place that seems to start in the late Seventies and is capable of skipping the last Twenty Years. It's five rusty strands, with a wipe of oil on the skin, to lessen the listener's pain, but... so much irrepressible beauty!

The crooning of Don't Get Lost seems to come out of Stan Ridgway's vocal chords. The music on this EP are eclipses of darkness, Germany appearing to you in a dream, as everything slides towards the prairie of our privilege...
