Oldenburg based post-rock outfit BRUECKEN have shared their new music video for the song “Ataxie”, coming from their upcoming album “Inne Unruhen”, set for the March 25th release on Moment Of Collapse Records.
BRUECKEN is an Oldenburg based band from Northern Germany, playing atmoshperic, but energetic instrumental music. On their sophomore record BRUECKEN offer a multi-faceted sound ranging from exploding walls of heavy guitars to calm and thoughtful moments of fragile beauty.
Comments the band: “”ATAXIE plays with the concept of being paralyzed in the face of (necesarry) change. The video tries to capture these feelings of unease that inspired the whole album-concept as well as the song. The contradictions of static and movement, of nature and technology, of stability and progression, of your personal struggles and those of and for your environment can be overwhelming. Not only individually but also collectively. But in the face of huge challenges like fighting climate change or inequality we’re convinced that we need to overcome being paralyzed by our unease, personal or collective unrests, and use them as a driving force of change, a way to incite empathy and bridge the gap from thoughts to action. We were able to realise this video only through a lot of support by our friends and family and the wondeful dedication of Florian Nielsen, who shot and edited the piece – and we are very thankful for that.”
BRUECKEN play atmospheric instrumental music. An unorthodox but fluent mixture of different influences from hardcore to shoegaze, that challenges the well-known and established post-rock-formulas. Live as well as on record the band manages to craft an atmospheric as well emotionally intense experience for their listeners BRUECKEN started 2015 in Oldenburg in northern germany, writing songs in the vein of dark, atmospheric post-hardcore.
Within two years the band managed to get themselves known within the scene through a first EP and some concerts. But multiple difficult events forced the band to take a break and re-orient themselves. They returned in 2019 with a new idea: presenting their own interpretation of post-rock, combining punk attitude and ethos with progressive and emotional aspirations. The band refined this approached and take the next step on their creative path with their new album „INNERE UNRUHEN“ written and recorded in the forced break of the corona years.
“INNERE UNRUHEN” – a German phrase for “personal feelings of unease“ as well as „civil unrest“ – will be released in cooperation with Moment of Collapse Records end of march 2022. With its six extensive songs it is the observable result of a band, finding themselves.
With care and thought BRUECKEN create a recognizable and diverse sound, that takes it‘s inspirations from all genres of atmospheric and heavy (guitar)-music and doesn‘t have to hide from genre-icons like IF THESE TREES COULD TALK or PG.LOST.
