±0 - ±0 (2017) EN


Enigmatic name, four artists called only by single letters (M, O, R and Z) and music so close to coldwave. The Czech ±0 is together with Local Blood my most interesting discovery within the genre this year. Especially that the Slavic mix lets me understand some parts of the lyrics. Sad ones.

And so the album starts with very monochromatic description of Letna, one of the city areas in Prague. Next track sounds even more nostalgic, talking about a place somewhere in the world where you want to settle down and "plant gardens". Next songs are about things like the sad city of  Žižkov, smoking cigarettes and being alone. Musically speaking there's everything you seek in this kind of music - clear bass line, raw guitars and vocal that is both lacking emotions and in some weird way expressing a lot. It's dark with the darkness of a big, concrete city, it's cold with the coldness of grey sky and it's raw.

S/T album is available for pay-what-you-want.
