Svalbard er ferdig …

Er de overtatt av Russland?

Neida, Hardcore-/postmetalbandet med det merkelige navnet melder at de er ferdige som band, og meldte nylig inn sin siste låt.

If We Could Still Be Savedsjekker du ut her:

Bandet er eller var nettopp på sin siste turne i Uk, og leverte denne sangen et par dager før turnestart.

«On the track, members Serena Cherry, Liam Phelan, Mark Lilley and Matt Francis tear through 5 minutes of heart-wrenching shoegaze and pumelling post-metal, delivering sharp bitter bile and shimmering lush melodies in equal measure. They bow out with the raw, crushing honesty and ingenious musicianship that they’re cherished for.»

Serena Cherry: «We spend most of our lives unaware of finality. Blissfully oblivious to when those musical notes played will be our last.  So, when we can see an end in sight for something, it distorts the view. Like a funeral marked in your calendar a year in advance. Appreciation shows it’s sheepish face and whispers: ‘sorry I took so long.’

This is the last time we will release a song as Svalbard. Its a song not just heavy with riffs but heavy with sentiment, reflecting on our 15 years as a band. It’s also a parting gift to all of the people who have supported us. 

Think of it as the metal version of Goodbye by the Spice Girls
