While the release of highly anticipated new album, Apollo, of French goth/cold/wave post-punk masters Soror Dolorosa draws near, the band presents a track named "Another Life". Soror Dolorosa will release Apollo on 15th September via Prophecy Productions.
Four years in the making, Apollo is Soror Dolorosa's crowning achievement; a bombastic dystopian world view encapsulated in dark popcraft. Melodic and memorable, the album shines a light on both stunning beauty and haunting sadness with Andy Julia's foreboding, prophet of doom baritone soaring on down a long and lonesome highway full of baroque, exquisite anguish.
Long associated with acts such as Alcest, Les Discrets and Lantlôs, it makes perfect sense for Prophecy to welcome Julia and Soror Dolorosa to its family of artists. Long compared to standard-bearers such as Fields Of The Nephilim, The Sisters Of Mercy, Joy Division and Bauhaus, it too makes sense that Soror Dolorosa continues to grow its sound and vision; and with Apollo, a follow-up to the fantastic No More Heroes (2013), they have taken that very next step. For the band, Apollo isn't just a new album, it's a spiritual quest.
Vocalist Andy Julia, also a renowned editorial photographer in Paris' elite fashion industry, the frontman who is also an exhibited artist and published author who travels the globe, comments about the album: "Travels were the key inspiration for the songs on Apollo. Passing through plains, mountains, cities, forests and deserts; all of these sensations, all of these smells are remembered and represented within the songs simple melodies and die hard grooves."
