Renowned artist In Aeternam Vale takes us on a journey through time with the release of his upcoming EP, “Gamma Gamma Hey!” on the Barcelona-based label Urban Legend Records. Drawing inspiration from a tumultuous past marked by the looming threats of the Cold War, the Berlin Wall, and the specter of atomic warfare, the artist weaves a sonic narrative that serves as both a cautionary tale and a call to action.
Through its poignant vocals and evocative melodies, “Gamma Gamma Hey!” explores the darker aspects of human nature, particularly our tendency to self-destruct through the manipulation of our environment and the creation of harmful chemicals. In Aeternam Vale highlights the need for introspection and accountability, urging listeners to confront the consequences of our actions and strive towards a better world for future generations.
In reflecting on the themes of the EP, In Aeternam Vale shares, “I am uncertain about the story I wish to convey. I feel that the world was a more dangerous place when I was young, with the Cold War looming, the Berlin Wall standing tall, and the threat of nuclear weapons hanging over us.
‘Gamma Gamma Hey!’ is a reminder not to forget our history, as it has a way of repeating itself, and to recognize that the future is not guaranteed.”
“Gamma Gamma Hey!” serves as a powerful reminder of the fragile balance between past, present, and future.
Today we premiere The Lift, a piece that transmits a tool-orientated atmosphere, with an elevating progression that gives a sense of hope.
