Give Up to Failure - Burden (2020) EN

Wrocław-based Polish band playing very dark and very noisy blend of shoegaze and darkwave. This is Give Up to Failure, band that started to intrigue me playing live, now released a very interesting debut LP called Burden.

It seems to me that the Poles really underline their shoegaze inspirations. Indeed, the album really is loud and guitar-filled in the shoegaze style: more of the wall of guitar sounds than metal riffs. On the other hand, I'd rather call them darkwave, especially when it comes to the cold, dispersed vocals with the very coldwave vibes. And then, there's also rather flat sound and minimalist compositions. Atmosphere, darkness and melancholic noise.

It seems that their Bandcamp found compromise tagging their new album as darkgaze. Noise can be found everywhere on it, especially in tracks such as After the Fall or the final Burial Ground. But this noise is dirty, furious and not-at-all tamed. And it suits the band very well.

Burden costs 4 EUR (16 PLN).
