Highly recommended.

With Molchat Doma occupying every Westerner’s “Eastern European cold-wave post-punk” thinking, it's time to expand your horizons.

Third album from the Kyiv, Ukraine post-punk project. The album was supposed to be the logical continuation of the previous album, released in 2020.

Initially, when conceiving the album in 2021, it was intended to be lighter, melancholic and somewhat danceable while maintaining the basic sonic style and aesthetics of the previous albums.

However, the Russian invasion in Ukraine slowed down the work and made serious changes to the general idea of the album. The main theme of the album is the war. There are no specific stories or descriptions of the events of the war. It's more of an abstract and emotional thing. First impressions, moods or emotions experienced during certain events. Pain of loss, sadness, fear, hatred, anger, and aggression are all part of 'Svitaye, Palaye'.

"...this is more apocalyptic in scope, focusing more on the darker vibes. Always a strong tribal vein to the whole concoction. Morwan is beyond emotionally excellent, it's a must." - accurate Bandcamp comment
