Hoffnung

Rare 10" vinyl dated 2005

Handnumbered edition of 297 copies - Includes insert

Third release by Wermut, and the first on their own label (t)reue um (t)reue.
"Hoffnung" (2005) seals the bridge between the early post-industrial / neofolk and new minimal-electro influences.
Sofia E.R. and Laszlo P.S. take us into a world of pessimistic heroism where Casio / C64 sinewaves and accordion melodies meet, and set Schiller, the New Testament and other forgotten poets to minimal-wave dancefloor anthems or melancholic ballads.
10 songs with male and female vocals in German, English, French and Latin.
Post-apocalyptic-minimal-electro at its best!
