Angels of Liberty - Angels Of Liberty

2016-08-28 (News)

This edition combines two very limited and immediately sold out limited EP’s by the British Goth act Angels of Liberty. British Terrorizer magazine on the band: "Angels of Liberty are one of the darkest, emerging talents from the UK's goth scene. With roots firmly in traditional 80s/90s goth, their creations are very much a nod to the ‘old guard', yet very distinctive, blending of guitars and drum machine programming, comparison influences from early Sisters of Mercy and Nosferatu are immediately obvious. There is an immediate air of deepening anticipation reminiscent of a darkening fairytale, with classical strings, simple atmospherics and harp-like chords but also songs that develop a distinctive base of haunting guitars and powerful drum sequences that envelope the misery laden vocals with a sense of desperate urgency under a veil of elaborate atmospherics!"

"The Songs have been written in these our hard times of more and more intricated global crisis and the ever growing raise of fanatic nationalism and other insane incidents of certain human minds. We intended to oppose a ‘term' to the increasing bewilderment / the imminent fiasco of human civilization we all seem to precipitate towards… a term that would express at the same time our incapacity to defend ourselves and our will to fight for what our civilization has reached over the past centuries – the "Zero Soldier Army"" explains Diorama mastermind Torben Wendt.
"When we produced "Zero Soldier Army", we first of all re-discovered our love for powerful Electronic sound and further developed it. Harder and straighter as on recent albums, but with that specific feel for melancholy as always. The album turned out to be 100% Diorama.
