Lion's Law - Evermore [COMPACT DISCS] date 03/14/2025

2021 . Clicks frontman Kr-Lik has pulled off a magnificent coup The mischievous provocateur of the Polish electro project faked a radical change of style towards guitar-swinging gothic tones and spared no effort to do so. G. O. T. H. stands for InchGetting Old, Tired, and Hungry. Inch The title programmatically refers to the theme of this album, which in terms of content is a thoroughly serious, respectful examination of this former youth culture, which has been noticeably aging for several decades. The song 'Every Bloated Muscle', for example, can be understood as a satirizing homage to the Nitzer Ebb EBM classic 'Murderous' - from the perspective of 30 years later. In this way, the famous elephant in the room is also made visible in a self-ironic way What actually happens to the Polish scene heroes when cultivated depression and juvenile longing for death are pushed to the sidelines by family and children? CLICKS deliver a powerful answer with InchG. OT. H. Inch. Without denying their roots in the classic EBM electronic field in the slightest, the Poles take sporadic electroclash and minimal dance influences and bow gallantly to acts like Anthony Rother or Guy Buratto. This InchnewInch lightness creates exciting musical hybrids like 'First World Problems', 'I Dream' or 'Mr Nevergonnabe'. On G. OT. H. experimentalism, perfect sounds and casual humor fuse with scene-spanning nonchalance. This works just as well in the car or at home as in the club. Out of the mocking confusion strategy of the Poles finally emerges an album that is as idiosyncratic as it is modern, that winkingly turns a long nose at the self-proclaimed EBM scene moreskeepers and almost casually heaves the freshly coined sound design into the 21st century. This is how musical self-renewal works Clicks' G. O. T. H. is the antithesis of all the band EBM cliches of the last two decades.

Almost five years after the of their latest long-player InchThrough the DarknessInch mexican oppressive black metal institution Black Hate announce the of their new effort, InchAltalithInch out in July 2020 via Dusktone. The whole album draws the listener into a void of interweaving beauty, coalescing with paralyzing dejection that leaves nothing but the desire of total immersion, Black Hate prove their versatile musical identity once again and that the modern blend of deadly black metal is flowing through their veins. The third world has arrived, the old scriptures of Sumeria has been set on fire, and the holy names has been named, now is time for Ascension, now is time for redemption, Ir./Kalla is the disintegration of all existing knowledge, the purest form of human redeem, when the Nergal's voice resonates and the trumpets starts to sound, Ir./Kalla will complete the seventh gate.
