Schonwald
Dream For The Fall
Dont let the Germanic name fool you, Schonwald is an amazing discovery, a HOT duo from Italy! Schonwald is all about atmospheres: hypnotic minimalist mood and a noise inclination with echoes of SUICIDE, NEW ORDER, THE CURE, mingling with synth melodies straight from the '80. Their first album "Amplified nature" was released in 2009 in a special Vinyl edition incl. CD on Pocket Heaven Records (Luxembourg). Their live debut was in London at "Myogenic Festival" and Ampli- fied Nature has been supported by 4 European tours through Italy, England, France, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Germany. A review or their USA 7" single release Mercurial: Schonwald are now encroaching on world submission with the unleashing of their long-anticipated "Mercurial" single. A chilling and hopelessly bleak drum-machine rhythm sets the tone, parting the waves of rippling darkness into a massive surge of inescapable, hushed-yet-crushing electronic melancholia. European post punk at its finest, Alessandra and Luca of Schonwald create a pulsing, black-lit atmospheric electronic vibration so cold, hypnotic, and simple, its perfect for our endlessly frozen world.
