{"product_id":"molchat-doma-belaya-polosa","title":"Molchat Doma- Belaya Polosa ( Vinyl )","description":"\u003cp\u003eBelarusian post-punk \/ synth pop group Molchat Doma have always exuded the kind of\r\nbrutalist aesthetic of the architecture that adorns their album art. It's cold, gray, imposing,\r\nindustrial-and yet there are human hearts beating within those foundations. In the wake of\r\ntheir breakthrough success in 2020, the trio endured a polarity of experiences, from the nadir\r\nof an uprooted life and forced relocation away from their native Minsk to the apex of headlining massive shows across the world. It was in this headspace that the band settled into their\r\nnew home of Los Angeles to finish writing their fourth album Belaya Polosa, a testament\r\nto change in difficult times, a love letter to the digital pulse of the '90s, and a technicolor\r\nreinvention of the band's somber dancefloor anthems.\r\nFrom the opening synth swell and drum machine throb of \"Ty Zhe Ne Znaesh' Kto Ya,\" to\r\nthe goth \/ post-punk austerity of \"Son\", to the swirling electronic textures mixed with reverbdrenched guitar flourishes, expansive space, and yearning vocals of title track \"Belaya Polosa\"\r\n- that suggests Depeche Mode at their most reflective or The Cure at their most downtrodden - to the sultry and seductive \"Chernye Cvety\"- a track reminiscent of Duran Duran's\r\nearly '90s output in it's fusion of dreamy guitars and authoritative mechanized beats - and\r\nthe interwoven layers of instrumentation, soaring chorus, and melodic sophistication of \"Ya\r\nTak Ustal\", it's clear that Molchat Doma are operating on another level.\r\nMolchat Doma gained following with earlier albums that sound like third-generation bootlegs of banned recordings from the Eastern Bloc made after a few key entries in the Factory\r\nRecords catalog were smuggled in from the West. Belaya Polosa propels them into a new direction while retaining their cold minimalist delivery they're known for. The basement grime\r\nand dirty tape-head sound of their previous work are now making space for digital luster and\r\nshimmering production values.\r\nAnd while Molchat Doma's broadened aural spectrum adds a synesthetic power to Belaya\r\nPolosa, the mood remains rooted in stark and unflinching self-reflection. Molchat Doma\r\nretain the duality of being both cold and feverish in their delivery while pushing their music\r\ninto expanded territories through an armory of new textures. The trio continue to harness\r\nthe sound of harrowing beauty thriving under harsh realities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e? ? ? ? ? ? \/ Ty Zhe Ne Znaesh Kto Ya\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? \/ Kolesom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? \/ Son\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? ? \/ Belaya Polosa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? ? \/ Beznadezhniy Waltz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? ? \/ Chernye Cvety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? ? \/ Ne Vdvoem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? ? ? \/ Ya Tak Ustal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ? \/ Zimnyaya\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Sacred Bones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57416477245775,"sku":"843563174753","price":3.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/4352563-3204209.jpg?v=1775561218","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/molchat-doma-belaya-polosa","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
