SEVER THE SERVANTS - Drops Apocalyptic Debut Full-Length

Darkwave duo Sever The Servants has recently unleashed its debut full-length, self-titled album on the Produkt 42 label, which is available for listening in the player below.

The album's themes are generally apocalyptical, with some political and social commentary. From the "right-wing hivemind" theme of the title track to the things that slowly kill us day to day, each of the album's six tracks represents the freedom to explore with a complete lack of care towards staying in a "box".

A song like "Get In The Grave" serves as a sonic memento mori, while "Haunt Me" was spawned from folk tales of sirens and banshees. "Cruel World" is lamenting the near-purgatorial state of existence in a world riddled with flaws while nearly embracing those very same flaws.

Synths wail and weep alongside the vocals. The album is also rich with experiments in distorted instrumentation and textures, menacing sounds and dirty drums.

Sever The Servants is the brainchild of Hide Tepes (Carrion, MissFit Toys) and Mike Nolen (Hitchcock Guillotine, Long After Midnight). The duo came together over a mutual love for the darker corners of the electronic music scene and modular synthesis to craft a uniquely dark, pulsating brand of industrial. Link
