French post-punk/coldwave collective North Pope will soon release via Curved label their debut EP entitled Strange Times. The EP features four short but powerful and emotionally intense tracks. North Pope are influenced by acts such as The Sound, And Also The Trees..., Bauhaus, The Chameleons, Editors, Motorama and Black Flag to name a few. This new act has a goal to make a lot of studio albums, without a specific genre, but with the help of the artist's community inside the collective.
Sebastien comments: "This EP was my suggestion to the collective. I started to think about it during the curfews in France, we were locked inside our apartments and the future seemed very incertain by this time. I always dreamt about doing a record on my own but I didn't really know where to start, as it was my first EP. What I was really sure about was the style that I was going to deal with : the Coldwave. I spent all my teenage years listening to bands such as The Sound, And Also The Trees.... Even recently, I was very amazed by the resurgence of the genre by Eastern European/ Russian bands such as Ploho, Molchat Domo and so on."
And the band adds: "Strange are the times we are living in. War, terrorism, political abuses, sexual harassments, rapes, racism... Humans are not very humane anymore. What will happen in the next few years? We don't know, but we wish you to be safe. In these days, that's all we can ask for."
The entire EP, Strange Times, is already available for streaming in full, as well North Pope recently released a music video for the song "Everyday Animals". Link
