On November 4th, 2022, Hidden Souls will release their new album “All
That We Destroy” via the German record label Echozone.
In 2018, the Argentinian band released their debut album “The Incorruptible Dream”.
Now, they are back with new material after touring in Europe for the first
time.
“All That We Destroy” is a little closer to synthpop than its predecessor, but the lyrics are still deep and dark as usual. If you compare this new album with the first album, you clearly notice that the ‘Hidden Souls sound’ is still there. The structure and the atmosphere of the songs are a trademark of the band.
The name of the album was born from the sad images and feelings from all over the world in the last couple of years. A dark atmosphere embraces the planet. First, the pandemic situation has changed our lives as we knew it.
Now, however, the situation around the globe is even worse because we still have the virus in our daily lives plus the economic problems and war is around the corner. Sadly, the band was right four years ago when the Argentinian trio released the single “The World Is Falling …” (it was on the D.A.C. Top 20 for 5 weeks)
William was walking in Berlin and he saw a hole in some remaining part of the Berlin Wall. He thought that it was ironic, because he saw through the hole and he saw another wall. So, he said to his wife: “It doesn’t matter how many years we’ve tried to make the world better. Finally, we always come back to the same sad point. Because something happens and we destroy everything we did … everything we build, everything we wrote.” The hole is a metaphor.
If you see the cover of the album, you can see a dark present through the hole. “I Was There …” is the opener song of the album and the first single. It’s a danceable futurepop song. Then, the synthpop shines until the ‘dark ballads’ appear: “Something” and “All That We Destroy”. But first, you can hear the song “Loreley”; a song about the German myth “Lorelei” from the Rhine Gorge. A pop feeling but with a strong message arise with the song “Know Your Fears”, while the hidden goth soul of the band leads you to a different space and time with the melancholic and beautiful duet called “Nobody”. The ‘poetic’ synthpop song “We’re All Escapists” and the ‘soundtrack-ish’ track “The Void” close the back door of the album.
