chci zpátky, zpátky do stáda / i want back, back to the herd
chci zpátky k pastýřům a lyrám / i want back to the shepherds and the lyres
chci okovy i louky, kde / i want shackles and i want meadows, where
ranní modř krásou srdce svírá / the heart tightens at the beauty of the blue morning
chci zpátky jho, dlaň hospodáře / i want the harness back, the palm of the rancher
bezpečí teplý stodoly / the safety of a warm barn
vracím svobodu: / i am giving back my freedom:
starým bohům jdu prostřít sváteční tabuli / to set a festive table for the Old Gods
chci ohradu, lány a dřinu / i want a fence, vast fields and a life of toil
vraťte mi železo značkovací / give me back the branding iron
vítr cuchá srst / The wind flows through my coat
když navečer se z pastvy vracím / as i return from the pasture in the evening
Great to see Hourloupe back with more avant-garde spoken word musings on "time, reality, and the natural world". Here they reflect on humanity's journey from a moment in 19th century natural history to staring transfixed at the anthropocene headlights. Fear not the poetic narration is as warm & reassuring as a first world lifestyle & the music it's own, frankly mesmerizing, complex electroacoustic ecosystem with only the occasionally unsettling hint of it's impending breakdown.

Bleak, throbbing work that lands halfway between coldwave and shoegaze, this Berlin group hits that spot just under the breastbone. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 15, 2017
An earthy yet somewhat chilly record about life, death, and reconnection, the latest from LOMA experiments with a turn towards the gloomy. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 16, 2024
