SUMMARY:POISON RUIN + LITURGY (SOLO)
DESCRIPTION:POISON RUIN zeigen mit neuem Album düstere\, aggressive Mythos
 -Songs\, Liturgy begeistert mit exklusiver Solo-Performance. Backline and 
 Bergeflvster Presents:\nA DOUBLE FEATURE WITH:\nPOISON RUIN\nBuilding off 
 the strengths of their critically acclaimed works\, POISON RUIN return wit
 h their new album\, Hymns From the Hills. The Philadelphia Punk band have 
 developed their signature approach to grim mythmaking and scythe-swinging 
 aggression in bold new directions\, offering up a new body of songs that s
 trike one as equal parts natural\, undeniably of this world\, and phantasm
 al.\nThe band's vision has grown substantially\, pushing well past the tal
 es of peasants and serfs that stood as allegories for contemporary alienat
 ion in their previous work. On this newest offering\, their previous stori
 es of toil and dispossession are revealed to be but one chapter etched upo
 n a bleaker tapestry- One populated by spirits traversing sunless deserts 
 and wilted hillsides\, demonic torture objects limning the edges of the ps
 yche\, bodies transfigured into Luciferian snakes\, Sadean prisoners bound
  to the screaming silence of abandoned castle towers. The record is at onc
 e a forceful restatement of POISON RUIN's trademark sound and a departure 
 from it- The crackling\, cassette-dubbed darkness and crushing rhythms lis
 teners have become accustomed to are buttressed by a carefully sculpted mo
 saic of new textures\, from flourishes of Killing Joke hacksaw primitivism
  and blast-beats worthy of the Relapse catalogue number to crisp analog sy
 nth lines and ambient serenades reminiscent of Scott Walker and The Durutt
 i Column. Like a serpent moving ever outward with spiraling circularity\, 
 Hymns From the Hills expands POISON RUIN's sonic landscape in imaginative 
 new directions while maintaining its center of gravity firmly in the band
 ’s already established mythos.\n\nLiturgy (Solo Performance)\nWe are exc
 ited to announce an swiss exclusive Liturgy Solo Performance by Healla Rav
 enna Hunt-Hendrix\, the mind behind the renowned project: Liturgy\nLiturgy
  is the project of Haela Ravenna Hunt-Hendrix\, whose yearning\, energetic
  “transcendental black metal” exists in the space between metal\, art 
 music and sacred ritual. Its current lineup includes Mario Miron (guitar)\
 , Tia Vincent-Clark (bass) and Leo Didkovsky (drums). Celebrated for their
  fusion of sincere emotion\, compositional complexity\, stylistic daring a
 nd intense live energy\, the band is simultaneously a medium and platform 
 for drama and theology. It was founded in the context of Brooklyn DIY as a
  solo project by Hunt-Hendrix in 2005 while she was studying philosophy an
 d classical composition at Columbia. In 2009 Hunt-Hendrix stimulated ferve
 nt conversation in the music world with her text “Transcendental Black M
 etal”\, and after expanding to a quartet they made waves globally with t
 heir 2011 sophomore album Aesthethica for fusing black metal with math roc
 k and infusing the form with a counterintuitively loving\, emotional energ
 y. Their ambitious 2015 album The Ark Work was controversial for its incor
 poration of IDM and trap production into their musical language. In fall 2
 019 they solidified this sound world with their highly acclaimed fourth st
 udio album H.A.Q.Q.\, which is tied to an ongoing philosophical YouTube le
 cture series. Their fifth studio album\, an opera entitled Origin of the A
 limonies\, was released in November 2020\, recorded with an eight-piece ch
 amber ensemble and performed at Roadburn festival in 2021 as the live scor
 e to an eponymous film created by Hunt-Hendrix. After a solo sculpture exh
 ibition in 2022\, the album 93696 was released in 2023 followed by an exte
 nsive world tour.\nVeranstalter: Jonathan Schenker Bildnachweis: Backline
