***LA PETITE MORT / LITTLE DEAH (Sasscore, Köln)

https://lapetitemortlittledeath.bandcamp.com/album/disco-ii-monomyth

La Petite Mort / Little Death move intuitively in the in-between. With DISCO II, they present their most accessible album to date — one that doesn’t consolidate the coordinates between sasscore, screamopop and math rock, but deliberately fans them out even further. The second album by the Frankfurt- and Cologne-based band reflects on growing up and out of DIY scenes that now exist mostly as echoes: screamo and hardcore socialisation of the 2000s, sad-boy aesthetics, performative sensitivity, and the friction that arises when queerness meets spaces that present themselves as progressive but often remain narrowly defined.
DISCO II consciously refuses cynicism. Rather than settling scores, the focus is on closeness, community and the fragile connections that live shows can create. Music is not dissected here, but shared — as a moment, a movement, an experience. LPM laugh, stumble, embrace, and carry their fractures openly.
Recorded over ten days with Magnus Wichmann (Blond, Leoniden, Neonschwarz) at Echolux Studios in Leipzig, the production merges no-wave and hyperpop textures with the physical immediacy of post-hardcore and dance-punk. Abstract and tactile elements intertwine; spaces open up only to suddenly collapse again. Drums shift between samples, metal and skins, guitars oscillate between hyper-nervous math rock in the vein of The Blood Brothers, bittersweet The Van Pelt-style slowcore, and crushing skramz walls à la Birds in Row. The bass (played by paul) alternates between melodic propulsion and counter-movement, providing traction throughout the entire rollercoaster ride.
Tracks like “Die Welle war mein Leben” morph freely through breaks and scene changes before resolving into a bittersweet, tinkling coda. Here, singer and guitarist Steffen catapults himself convincingly into the league of At the Drive-In’s Cedric Bixler-Zavala. “L’Envie de Plonger” opens with a growling bass and a hypnotic single-note flow; a driving beat sets the stage for guest vocalist Zooey Agros (13 Year Cicada), whose casually delivered vocals glide across the track. Bass, beats, staccato attacks and synths form a dense mesh — loop and texture magic that even Juana Molina might nod at in approval. “Sirenhead” initially appears as the cutest song alive, built on stumbling lo-fi drums, before drummer Jan steers it into manic territory with the help of rototoms. It’s driving, chaotic, free and tight all at once. Fun!
DISCO II leaves us dizzy with euphoria, inspired by pure joy in playing. DISCO II is not an
invitation to analysis, but an invitation to the party. How do we get there? “I will try to say
out loud ‘we’ll figure that out.’ With you.”

***RAHEL&ZOOEY (Experimental, Berlin)

https://unvague.bandcamp.com/album/wait

rahel&zooey is a duo based in Berlin, playing synthesizers, samplers and guitar.
After they met a few years ago they changed their setup for each concert,
exploring their sound with only one continuity: they always sing in unison. It’s silky,
noisy, unknown and fun.
This breeding ground was developed into their debut album 'wait', releasing on the
Bernese label 'unvague' in March 2025.
Besides playing the two of them, they started the collaboration series of EP’s called
rahel&zooey x. Their first release in this series was MAN-BER with based
Manchester artist bunny hoova.
In 2026, they are working on their second album in their own studio co-op, the first
ambassador of which will release in late summer 2026.
