German "chanson noire" duo St. Michael Front has released the third single/video, "1000 Namen", taken from its forthcoming sophomore full-length Schuld & Sühne (Crime & Punishment), set for release on 13 May via Auerbach Tonträger, a sub-label of Prophecy Productions.
The new single "1000 Namen" (1000 Names) shows the best side of St. Michael Front: The song comes along as a catchy tune with a deceptively easy-going melody that seduces the listener to whistle along, only to sneakily lodge itself into the brain on constant repeat. On closer inspection, "1000 Namen" begins to reveal layers of intriguing details that invite further exploration and make it easy to fall deeper in love with the song. For those with a grasp of the German language, the lyrics turn out to be surprisingly melancholic as the duo sings about their own experience of growing older. All of the above has been nicely summed up in an intelligent video clip.
St. Michael Front's singer Bruder Sascha comments: "The song '1000 Namen' revolves around being outcast and growing older. Together with you guys we join a line of 1000 philosophers, writers, and artists as well as all individualists that have already dealt with this topic. So let's raise our glasses... cheers!"
