French post-punk/gothic rock masters Soror Dolorosa are back with a new single "Obsidian Museum". This suave gothic rocker provides super cool 90s vibes while outside the European summer heats up. This track is taken from the forthcoming new full-length entitled Mond (the German word for 'Moon'), and has been scheduled for release on 4 October via Prophecy Productions.

"This is a second song written all alone by Jean-Baptiste Marquet where the voice came across fluently like on 'Tear It Up' and Hervé Carles had this idea of a galactic break to build up a massive finale", mastermind Andy Julia states. "It is a catchy mid-tempo track that takes you far to the horizon. Like so often in our music, this song is made for long drives and road trips. The 'Obsidian Museum' is the inner temple of adoration that we have in the intimacy of love. It appears like a mystical and darkened place where its walls, floor, and ceiling are reflecting souls without distortion through moonbeams. I imagined a whole place like this, infinite and intimate, where there can only be two of us. Like Adam and Eve chased from paradise, 'Obsidian Museum' is a response to the human condition, a magic door to escape from reality and to travel into outer space to reach the moon in an idealistic, orgasmic cosmic trip. Quite a vision, right?"

Creatures of the night probably miss the 80s of the last century badly. Post-punk and New Wave reached glorious heights and their epic explorations of mixing hard guitars and driving electronics dominated alternative dance floors. Names like The Sisters Of Mercy, Fields Of The Nephilim, Depeche Mode, Joy Division, Ultravox, The Mission, The Human League and others still have a magic ring to them.

The subtle eroticism, the electric excitement, and dark musical pleasure, it is all gone, many nocturnal prowlers sigh - both, those who have lived through this past and long for it but also the ones who were born too late and wish themselves back into a nostalgically glorified era. Fear not! Soror Dolorosa comes flying to the rescue on black wings. Their fourth album Mond has musical fangs that draw delicious sonic blood on the first listening experience. Link
