Russian dark pop/darkwave artist Apnoie released a new album, Sad Living + Sad Mind, via darkTunes Music Group. With her new album, Apnoie tears open the veil between pain and beauty. This feminine modern darkwave album is a fever dream laced with lust, grief, and sharp-edged poetry. Sensual and cynical, the songs sway between whispered French confessions, desperate German ballads, and raw English cries for escape, violence, and tenderness.
Think slow-motion breakdowns, red wine bleeding on cold tiles, and ivy creeping over forgotten graves. From the choking stillness of "Morning Haze" to the nihilistic lullaby "Anyway Death", this album doesn’t beg for your understanding—it dares you to drown in it.
Together with the album release, Apnoie presents a music video for the single "Ivy". Melancholy has probably never been this seductive. Apnoie sounds like apnoea—because every track holds your breath and never gives it back. Sleepwalk through the sadness. Fall in love with the decay. Link
