EXILE ON MAINSTREAM
Empty streets, contact restrictions, breathing masks - a situation, we all would have considered completely absurd just a few months ago adds a new kind of dismalness to our daily life, which turns a sombre vision into some new normality.
For a band whose inauguration falls into these times it's a self-evidently influence on their artistic creation.
Two days before the planned start of recording the world comes to a grinding halt with lockdowns implemented all over Europe.
The married couple Ana Muhi (vocals, bass) and Sven Missullis (guitars, vocals, drums) moves into their own studio in March 2020 to record the self-titled debut album.
The raw energy, subtleness and fragility of the written songs gets pulled into a wake deeply influenced by the state of the outside world.
Under circumstances and opportunities of a new level of concentration the tracks get formed: a dichotomy between emotional safety and discomfort, between rage, despair and esperance becomes the common theme.
While the world discusses topics such as 'Flatten The Curve', MIGHT create their own sine wave built from emotional interferences and amplification between music and personal experience, resulting in an album full of ethereal intensity bringing arguments into the depate from several musical genres such as Black Metal, Doom and Sludge, PostRock and Shoegaze.
This all happens organic and natural, taking the focus away from pure effects towards an emotional efficiency: the power of love as an answer to questions relating to death and live as fragments thrown into the lyrics.
MIGHT are: Ana Muhi (vocals, bass) and Sven Missullis (guitars, vocals, drums). The couple hails from Hannover, Germany.
The album is released on vinyl with the CD bundled, as digital download and on all available streaming platforms.
Fans of Chelsea Wolfe, Emma Ruth Rundle, Jarboe, Dolch, Treedeon, Neurosis, Ides Of Gemini, Black Mare will like MIGHT.
