Our Take

Upon first listen of Molchat Doma's latest release "Etazhi," one might find themselves transported to a dimly lit Soviet-era nightclub, surrounded by mysterious figures smoking clove cigarettes and sipping on questionable cocktails. The Belarusian trio has crafted an album that effortlessly blends elements of post-punk, new wave, and synthpop into a brooding and nostalgic soundscape. From the haunting opening track "Zvezdy" to the infectious rhythms of "Ne Smeshno," Molchat Doma showcases their knack for crafting catchy melodies and hypnotic beats. Lead vocalist Egor Shkutko's deep baritone vocals add a layer of melancholy to the music, perfectly complementing the band's dark and enigmatic aesthetic. Tracks like "Toska" and "Kletka" showcase the band's ability to build tension and release it in a cathartic explosion of sound. The pulsating basslines and icy synths create a sense of urgency that is both captivating and unsettling. While "Etazhi" may not be for everyone, those willing to delve into Molchat Doma's atmospheric world will be rewarded with a unique listening experience that is equal parts moody and euphoric. So grab your black turtleneck, light some candles, and immerse yourself in the enigmatic sounds of "Etazhi." It's a journey you won't soon forget.
