There’s a FIFTH Friday this month! And we should of course celebrate that fact before we drop that new edition of the Doom Charts on the FIRST Friday of next month. And what better way to celebrate this FIFTH, than with a Friday Freebie! Or two… Or five?
First up! SIDUS from Greece. This quartet with members residing in Berlin and Athens released their new three-track EP about two weeks ago. It’s called SEISMOS and sports some highly atmospheric and cinematic post-rock, metal and progressive wickedness! It’s instrumental and it will shake you and your surroundings like an earthquake!
Their own words: “Hailing from Athens and Berlin, SIDUS have carved a reputation for crafting instrumental compositions in the same vein as bands like God Is An Astronaut, Russian Circles and The Ocean Collective. The band started out as a one-man project by Spyros Olivotos, releasing one EP and two singles. Currently, the band has been signed by Argonauta Records for the release of their second EP, during 2023.“
“‘Seismos’ is a three song concept album about earthquakes. The theme of the songs correlates this explosive phenomenon to the individual fear and shock of a panic attack. The album explores the breathtaking beauty of this natural disaster, while raising awareness about mental health issues. Intense earthquakes create the unsettling feeling of insecurity due to their disastrous characteristics. The three songs are describing the genesis (‘Rupture’), path (‘Seismic Wave’) and expression (‘Seismos’) of the event. In the same way, panic attacks are often described in three stages as well. The early stage starts with a mental fog/blur. Shortly after, several body parts are acting out of control while the person feels kind of paralyzed, leading to the final expression, which is the collapse of the entire body (the shivering). Even though an earthquake (or the experience of a panic attack) is an intense event, there is always a calming period of realization afterwards. The last calming moments of the EP is resembling the hopeful sense of security when the control is restored and the event has passed.”
