DORF (vinyl)

Description

Geneva's post-punk phenomenon, Kraum, returns with their explosive debut album! Having captivated audiences with their raw energy and uncompromising sound through two singles released over the past six months, Kraum is back, ready to rattle your old bones with their highly anticipated debut album, 'Dorf,' set for release on Les Disques Magnétiques on June 21st. In just one year, Geneva's dynamic duo, Fabio and Alexey, have undeniably made their mark on the Genevan music scene. Embracing a DIY ethic and an uncompromising attitude, Kraum explores themes such as human-machine relationships, the absurdity of the contemporary world, and the deterioration of human connections with unapologetic fervour. Drawing inspiration from iconic bands like Kino, Joy Division, and Grauzone, as well as contemporary artists such as Molchat Doma and Noir Boy George, Kraum creates a sonic universe that transcends temporal boundaries. 'Dorf' promises a visceral journey through cold, austere landscapes, pulsating rhythms, and haunting melodies that linger long after the music stops. From the mysterious allure of 'Maskin' to the unsettling beauty of 'Raumn' or the powerful hyperpop vibe of 'Radio Moscou,' the project presents a myriad of moods and emotions, all packed with the same free spirit. With tracks sung in a mix of Swedish, Russian, and French, Kraum's music captures the essence of existential angst and punk emotion, resonating with audiences eager for authenticity and raw emotion. Get ready to listen to 'Dorf' and experience the raw power of Kraum like never before!
