Seven
years after "Todas Las Últimas Cosas", NOVY SVET are back with a
conceptual album – an epitaph, really – using mostly analogue radio
frequencies, sampled from an old kitchen wireless shortly before the
Austrian broadcasters went fully digital.
Out of those sonic remnants of
the past, NS distilled ten beautifully sad, urgent and heavy requiems
commemorating the end of an era and paying a last tribute to a modus
operandi that has always been at the heart of the band's work.
Warm,
muffled lo-fi emoscapes, glitched-out trap beats and the unmistakable
Spanish vocal lament of J.W. create such an overwhelmingly dreamy
ambience that it feels like floating through fuzzy halos and foggy
flares, adrift along the passing memories of a long forgotten summer,
the ghostly shadows of something that won't be again... and that maybe
never was.
Pushing NOVY SVET to the next level, this album is definitely
the most emotional to date and the perfect soundtrack for those
desperately longing.
