Destination Space Station - Hadean (2017) EN


Missouri-based band went for a hunt for new metaphors and to do so, reached the Lem-Asimov-like future and now, released an album combining dreampop and sci-fi. Sci-pop. Even its cover looks like an illustration for classic releases of Lem's prose.

The lyrics adapt concepts from sci-fi literature and mould them into universal metaphors. The first song describes terraforming, converting the surface of other planets so it can serve humans. But it is also about changing situations you end up in, into something "you can stand" on. The second one is a reference to Thera, the antic island with a civilization destroyed by the eruption of a volcano. But the very next one is a come back into the future with restarting a program and radiant lies.

The lyrics are not accompanied by space-like electronic music but very moody and warm dreampop. As if terraforming and space stations were already a part of our reality demanding including into pop music. So... it's a real dreampop from several decades into the future.

"Hadean" goes for only 3 USD.
