English Below!
Die Schwedische Band Normandie hat heute eine weitere Single vom kommenden Album "Dark & Beautiful Secrets" veröffentlicht. Mit "Babylon" hat das Trio uns damit neben "Holy Water", "Jericho" und "Atmosphere" bereits den vierten Song vom ihrer 10 Track LP um die Ohren gehauen und treffen damit voll ins Schwarze. Wie schon bei den anderen Songs aufgefallen sein sollte, zeigen die Jungs uns mit dem kommenden Album eine intime und persönliche Seite. Während sich "Atmosphere" mit der fragwürdigen Beziehung zu und der Verwendung von Social Media beschäftigt, schlagen die Schweden mit "Babylon" eine etwas andere, aber nicht weniger sensible Richtung ein.
"I’ve been searching for my identity my entire life. Going from group to group, crowd to crowd, trying to fit in - finally, I realised that my true identity is something I should form myself”.“Are you following or falling out” is a line I wanted to use to express the way many of these groups behave. You’re either in or out. To me, identity is what you get when you mix all the things you identify with, bits and pieces that then become you as whole". (Philip Strand, Sänger)
"Dark & Beautiful Secrets" ist das dritte Album der Band und erscheint am 19. Februar.2021 über Easy Life Records. Ich bin gespannt welche Themen Normandie sonst noch ansprechen werden und freue mich auf ein Album, das zum Nachdenken und Reflektieren anregt. Wem der Sound von Normandie gefällt kann sich freuen, denn die Jungs kommen im Herbst auf Deutschland Tour.

The Swedish band Normandie released another single from their upcoming album "Dark & Beautiful Secrets" today. With "Babylon" the trio has already published the fourth song from their 10 track LP next to "Holy Water", "Jericho" and "Atmosphere" and really hit the mark. As we were already able to notice with the release of the other songs, the guys show us an intimate and personal side with the upcoming album. While "Atmosphere" deals with the questionable relationship with social media, "Babylon" takes a slightly different, but no less sensitive direction. "I’ve been searching for my identity my entire life. Going from group to group, crowd to crowd, trying to fit in - finally, I realised that my true identity is something I should form myself”.“Are you following or falling out” is a line I wanted to use to express the way many of these groups behave. You’re either in or out. To me, identity is what you get when you mix all the things you identify with, bits and pieces that then become you as whole". (Philip Strand, Singer)
"Dark & Beautiful Secrets" is the band's third album and will be released on February 19, 2021 via Easy Life Records. I can't wait to find our what other topics Normandie will address and look forward to an album that will stimulate thought and reflection. Those who like the sound of Normandie can be happy, because their EU/UK Tour will take place in October.
