ARISTOPHOBIA NERVOSA/180 GR GATEFOLD SLEEVE

Description

Lia Hide, the acclaimed Greek artist, returns with her boldest work to date: ARISTOPHOBIA NERVOSA. Known for her fusion of dark pop, experimental soundscapes, and cinematic storytelling, Hide delivers her first album entirely in Greek, marking a decisive turning point in her career. Through ten tracks, ARISTOPHOBIA NERVOSA strikingly explores themes of alienation, social pressure, and personal survival with sharp irony. The title—a provocative play on words combining the Greek "Aristos" ("excellent, distinguished") with "phobia" and the clinical term "nervosa"—reflects the album's critique of elitism, expectations, and the neuroses of modern life. Produced, written, and arranged by Hide herself, the album highlights her distinctive blend of genres: avant-garde pop, dark pop, post-punk, jazz influences, glitch textures, and spoken word. Both personal and political, intimate and theatrical, ARISTOPHOBIA NERVOSA tells the story of a woman navigating a hostile reality, with visible scars, refusing silence.
