Πby New Polarities

Do you ever feel like leaving this planet behind, if only for a moment? Delve into space and let all your troubles disappear behind the infinite curtain of stars? It is exactly this desire that was captured in the Bands first full-length Album “Œ”. The entire Album relays what New Polarities embody: To step outside of yourself, journey beyond the real and enter the possible while never entirely breaking free from that anker that so cruelly grips our inner most being. For what can we be beyond the here if not rooted to our deepest thoughts, to how we feel and love?
This first Album seems to compose a contradiction in itself. The Lyrics muster an almost intellectual seriousness, confronting a world with deeply philosophical questions about what it means to be human and our relationships to one another. The music on the other hand, leads us astray into an almost dream-like sphere that is freed of such earthly concerns. It is, however, exactly this contradiction that the five bandmembers Vision of “Œ” aim to address: A Humanity that is paradoxical. Therefore, while we search for who and how we are and want to be, this search for Identity is not necessarily coupled to the continuing seriousness of what is perceived to be the reality out there. But it can be found in the smallest of moments in between, where we can simply drift off, feel and dance.
