the Dark Wait

Q: It’s been 3 years since your first studio album was released. ‘In Consequence’ was kind of psychedelic, progressive piece of work. Now you’re recording a new album, which is preceded by the single “Amethyst”. Is it going to be in a similar, dark atmosphere? Is there something that will surprise the listeners, who have been waiting for so long?

I think darkness is the predominant mood in “the Wait” album. It’s simply reflecting the flawed social reality we are set into. We are happy people in essence, but a work of art has to be reflective of, and be presenting, certain truths; to be confrontational. Let alone that you don’t usually sit and write lyrics when you’re the happiest, as you’re busy being happy. I really can’t value whether anything would be surprising for someone who knows ‘In Consequence‘ well enough. If it would be the case, I only hope they’d be pleasantly surprised.
