Then Came the Rain : Ravage - CD
Ref: 22896
Cold Wave solo project, founded in 2017 with as main influences : Depeche Mode, Joy Division, Clan of Xymox, The Sound, The Cure, Sisters of Mercy, Siouxsie & the Banshees, And also the Trees, Asylum Party, ... Then Came The Rain is Nicolas Albin's solo project. One man with his voice & instruments, writing & performing some alternative postpunk of highest inspiration. The second album "Ravage" is being released exactly 4 years after the first album titled "Eigengrau". If the sound and tracks of Eigengrau were directly inspired by classic Cold-Wave, this new album explores larger facets of the genre. The darkness of contemporary Post Punk still remains, yet the artist chose to open doors and to explore more subtle ground and different atmospheres throughout the album. Songs like Everything's gone black and Shock Doctrine are marked with an intense use of electronics. Fishtank or Hipparque will offer a new vision of ambient music tinted with bass and guitar sounds, that are still characteristic of the Post Punk scene. No Western Skies will even venture in the wide open atmospheres, but in a very peculiar and dark way. This album has a stronger and more defined sound than the previous one and tracks such as Afterworld or Convulsions are the links between the 2 albums. Tracks : 01 Ghost Fire 02 Convulsions 03 Afterworld 04 Shock Doctrine 05 Everything's gone Black 06 Fishtank 07 No Western Skies 08 Shining Darker 09 Hipparque 10 Lethe
