Steady hands have slipped from the levers of power, logic has shifted underground and the message grows more urgent with every passing day. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepetition has been relearned and the machine rhythms repurposed, this time with increased intensity. Arrangements have moved beyond the bare bones economy of the first record and there’s a newfound melodicism in places. Clarity and conviction ring true through the static and noise, while utopian ideas to remodel a broken system gain traction. This is a rejection of the attention economy and a call to reconnect through community and organisation. Those simple acts that were once commonplace have become increasingly radical as new fractures emerge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Through repetition the message has gained weight and become something more urgent,” The Sick Man Of Europe explains. “The vehicle for this message needed to evolve, grow to gain the strength to carry it. We’ve landed on something more expansive, immediate and immersive. Less is more. Until it isn't.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Blends pulsating motorik beats, nagging basslines and droning electronics into all-consuming atmospheres. Fronted by foreboding vocals that sit somewhere between Ian Curtis’ melancholic baritone and something more experimental, phrases are repeated over and over like mantras, slowly building in intensity until the words take on entirely new meanings”\u003cbr\u003eElectronic Sound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“The Sick Man Of Europe blend Krautrock aspects with charred remains of post-punk, tying this together by tapping into the UK’s current dystopian darkness”\u003cbr\u003eClash\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“If you dig danceable post-punk, give this a spin”\u003cbr\u003eBrooklyn Vegan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Coldwave for hot days”\u003cbr\u003eBandcamp\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank you for looking at our listing, below are a few points to consider before making a purchase:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- All records we sell are Brand New - pre-orders will normally come sealed but if you are purchasing in stock items, please note the copy may have been unsealed for display in the shop.
