Musically a little different from the usual Trost output, nevertheless the label thinks this a beautiful album and wants it to be relased in CD format (two bonus tracks).

RIYL John Maus, Levin Goes Lightly, Elektronika, Dark Synth Pop The Fool unveils the beauty of Bruch's versatile persona that takes us deep down into personal battles and witnesses the soul of a true rock'n'roll maverick, not afraid of his dark side, the dirt.

Big range of emotions areblended in rough and minimal synthwave, some broken beats and industrial electronic noise.

Bruch gets under your skin. Recorded in pure DIY manner, on his own, in his studio in Vienna during the last four years.

Bruch is the Alter Ego of Philipp Hanich from Munich, who lives in Vienna as a painter and musician.

Bruch: voice, guitar, synthesizer, sampler, drums, recording, mix. "The Fool unfolds as a collection of precisely written, produced and arranged songs, but also as a revue of pop's archetypes.

In virtually manic manner, Bruch pulls all styles of music that are suitable for his purposes into an irresistible vortex of grim opalescent emotions and uses them to turn his deep and haunting thoughts into music.

While some of Bruch's songs keep oscillating between cheerful pop/ rhythm & blues and murky hip hop/ industrial, others take the fast lane to the ogre end of the spectrum.

A romantic ride in a ferris wheel, as much as being jiggled by a breakneck rollercoaster.

The lowest point becomes the climax, bile turns into an elixir of life, a curse into a blessing.

The Fool's mission is striving forwards and disarming: existential intimacy as a strategy and weapon." - Cut Surface Records
