Box and the Twins - Everywhere I Go Is Silence (2017) EN

 German Box and the Twins combines airy dreampop with an unsettling darkwave vocals. And enlists their inspiration in the most beautiful way possible so it deserves its own four verses: 

"The sound of breaking glass.
The rain against Your window.
The sound of breaking hearts.

Midnight frost."

No wonder their album called "Everywhere I Go Is Silence" is simply so good. Their songs are, of course, about love, but it's a topic that can be talked and talked about. BatT do it in such a way that every track captivates with its own melody and atmosphere. I am bought by "Gravity" and "Perfume Well" and "Ice Machine" but the very best one for me is "This Place Called Nowhere" that both lyrics- and atmosphere- makes a great sequel to the recent "Somewhere in the Nowhere" by Chrysta Bell and David Lynch. Both songs presents "nowhere" as a geographically relevant place with its own coordinates but... is it worth getting lost there? That's debatable. The album is closed by three post-rock ballads and this is a particularly sad ending.

Where the band goes there's no silence, that's for sure. More like there's unsettling love music. And this is absolutely great.

"Everywhere I Go Is Silence" costs 8 EUR.
