PREMIERE: Essaira - I.I.C. [RWCLTR030]

from THE BRVTALIST · host THE BRVTALIST

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Essaira. "I.I.C." comes off the new LP, From The Guts of Essaira, forthcoming on Italy's Raw Culture. It follows the path announced with the single 'Dramla / Xirxe', expanding its tensions and guiding them towards a more layered, conscious expressive form. It is an album to be listened to without respite, allowing the sonic material to dilate. The tracks move across a punkstrial terrain rich in synths held in constant tension; sharp guitars and industrial rhythms alternate drive with suspension. The vocals, multiple and layered, do not seek centrality but co‑presence: they enter, disappear, pursue one another, dig deep and steer the listening through zones of friction and release. The album is released during a period of widespread instability and reflects that mood. The ten pieces construct a compact journey, with darkness and urgency alternating with more rarefied, introspective moments. Nothing is accidental: every segment is functional, every tension is permitted to resonate until the end. From the Guts of Essaira is a physical, visceral record; it works by accumulation and subtraction, strengthened by the fracture between control and abandonment. It breathes, listens, spreads. Out February 16th on vinyl + digital. Get it at: https://rawculture.bandcamp.com/album/from-the-guts-of-essaira
