Our Ashes At The End Of The Day

"...every single moment on the album feels so coherent, so convincing and dense that it takes a second to get used to the gravity of musical texture. And if you urgently need to find a consistency in the bands´ musical output then this is definitely the absence of it. There´s no way of presaging any compositional direction, no way of being prepared for any possible atmospheric setting... The grandeur of “Fourteen Rivers”, the joyfully compelling resignation of “Ash Trees”, the warming bleakness of “Shine”, “All Of Her”´s stained and napped drive and the heavyweight punch of “The Moment I fell”… there are so many facets, so many turns to take and so much joy in entrusting you blindly to the flow of the sound and the cluelessness where it will take you to..." (Vito Schneider)

ABOUT

From the veiny rivers of melancholy to the craggy rocks of disturbance, from the glaciated deserts of bleakness to the vast oceans of longing, from the lightless chasms of despair to the highest peaks piercing a bright sky - you can't put your finger on an emotional map and find certainty about the place the music of Golden Apes will bring you to. It is all in there and on opposite poles at the same time, an atlas shaping and changing with every sound that enters your ears, with every syllable that enters your head. Trojan harmonies ...

And from their debut "Stigma 3.am" (2000) to their highly acclaimed "KASBEK" (2019) the Golden Apes manage to deny any kind of tangibility, step back behind the music like being messengers only, delivering the map that guides you, leads you out to the land of swarms, to the places that scare and shelter you ... to the rivers and the deserts ...

The new album "Our Ashes At The End Of The Day" is out now.
