Pride And Fall have come back from a six year long absence from making music, to accommodate family and job matters. All individual band members were forced to re-shape their lives, so they could finally retun to making music again! The result of this 2-year long endeavour is “Of Lust and Desire”. Their previous dark epic “In My Time of Dying”-album topped the German Alternative Charts for six weeks in a row and was hailed as the best Future Pop release of that year.
But Pride and Fall freed ...
But Pride and Fall freed themselves from that heavy burden of the strong predecessor album and started with a clean slate, rebuilding the elements of Synthpop together with dark atmospheres and harmonies. While the dark orchestral sounds of the intro shoves the listener into a deep pit, the second track “Hollow” manages to pick them up again in no time, and serves as the ultimate Pride And Fall club anthem that we have all been waiting for!Despite the danceability and clubfriendlyness of most of the compositions of this album, the tracks also bear a certain heavyness and sadness at the same time. Compositions like “The Void – Let Me go first”, “Turn the Lights on” or “The Knife” just show how much intensity the Norwegians have channeled from their lives right into this album. Breathtaking!
