Northern Lite, Noblesse Oblige

Actually you’d rather sleep off if a year starts this way. Already at the beginning of 2007 this TV madness with the howling mass and everything the first league of music has to offer. Laid down the performance and dashing out of the after show in Berlin the next morning with a bunch of promises of the music industry and a bitter taste in the mouth. Usually a band splits up then right away. At least one has to go to rehab and the rest is working on their respective solo careers. So you have to pay respect for the fact that NORTHERN LITE are still there. They used the following rainy summer 2007 to work on a new album ‘Super Black’, released in March 2008.

Eventually they had to digest the weariness and the longing for an end of the exhaustion. More clear, more emphatic and more stringent than ‘Unisex’, their latest release. The sound of their whole year can be found in songs like ‘Nowhere’ or in ‘Different’, a song which is dark right from the start and whose calm and wave-like dynamic of the music fits perfectly to the endless centre strip, Doubts, always doubts and the quest for relief. In autumn they’ll be on tour again and also stop in Magdeburg on 14th November 2008.
