The four songs of Silverships' debut EP "Kingdom of Decay" encompass all musical styles from which the Hamburg-based band draws their inspiration.

The desert rock of the 90s and 2000s forms the foundation of the trio. Many traces of Queens Of The Stone Age can be found in the songs.

The heavy passages also conjure up associations to Kyuss. Soundscapes from 70s Pink Floyd also appear again and again.

Light psych-pop moments of early Tame Impala are followed by dense and dark atmosphere capturing the vibe of The Doors - and would also work well as the soundtrack for a movie yet to be made.

In addition to opulent arrangements and varied songwriting, what characterizes the band is their love of B parts, always ending their songs on an exclamation point.

Hauke Albrecht is the man behind the powerful production. With Mountain Witch, he produced the last bigger stoner export from Hamburg.

The band was able to get BEWITCHED Graphics' Benjamin Nickel for the artwork, whose psychedelic works have also been featured by the Reeperbahn Festival, for example.
