The Hirsch Effekt Share New Single & Video “Bilen”

 
 
Album “KOLLAPS” Coming May 8th, 2020
The Hirsch Effekt share their new single “BILEN” along with a music video. It’s the second track from the bands 5th studioalbum KOLLAPS coming May 8th, 2020 via Long Branch Records. KOLLAPS encounters everyday madness with elaborate counterpoints and ludicrous lyric lines. In a heavier manner, the band slips into the roles of other, social actors to reflect the aspects of their agenda: a dispute with the systematic collapse is thematized from the perspective of the “Fridays For Future” -movement, depicted in a musical dainty or a bizarre way, then again also to corrode opposers in a strobe-like manner.
 
“BILEN” is now available as Stream and Download on all digital platforms.

The Hirsch Effekt about the new single “BILEN”:
“BILEN was mainly written by Nils and like LYSIOS from our previous record, it purposely alludes to the sound of world famous German band Rammstein. Tim Tautorat, the engineer, producer and mixer of the album, as well as avowed motorist, commented the lyrics with: ‘What a funny and true text.’ It belongs to the more sarcastic tracks, just like TARDIGRADA from our previous record.”
 
KOLLAPS will be available as Box-Set, CD/LP+T-Shirt Bundle, CD, 2LP, Stream and Download. Pre-order the album here thehirscheffekt.lnk.to/kollaps

After their last album „Eskapist“ (2017), which charted #21 on the German album charts, and formidable show-offs at Wacken Open Air, Full Force Festival and as recent headliners at the renowned Euroblast Festival, The Hirsch Effekt have now spawned their new ogre. Musically, the trio from Hanover, Germany, has once again settled in the microcosm of progressive metal and enhanced their songs with their typical trademark of – at first glance totally out of the line – genre-hopping.
 
Similar as on previous records, it happens again by Hirsch-style chopping of parts and beats, that first off felt safe and usual. In between chorals resound, helping to find one’s way back to a necessary recollection. On the one side it’s a euphonious, on the other side a hurting listening experience that leads to a heightened perception of the exposure of the human disorientation, and serves as a call to the solitary consciousness of courageous individuals – to gather together at concerts.
 
Live, this symbolic demise is celebrated purification. This can be celebrated together with the fans at upcoming shows, by the way of indulging unison and clamor, questioning oneself whether the own heart and thoughts have gone prone to egoism or still are in line with the harmony of hope, that is hidden within „Kollaps“.
