ECHOES OVER EUROPE

March 16, 2022. The bombing of the theatre in Mariupol, Ukraine. Our continent is on fire.

Growing tired of the flood of cryptic lyrics in modern rock, I felt the urge to return to storytelling — ’60s Dylan–style. Or, if you prefer, the directness of early ’90s Tool, RATM, and Pearl Jam. Honest. Confrontational. Almost journal-like.

Europe became my lens, my subject, my wound.

Four years later, the band has arrived. The sound, the songs, and our debut album are finally here.

ECHOES OVER EUROPE; nine tracks, total playing time over 45 minutes.

Nine stories about our beautiful continent in distress. To build a mutual consciousness. But first of all...to never forget what happens on our European soil.
