FERN
I can't breathe and my sore throat can't speak any word. I won't sleep still my numb limbs will slip through the earth. Everyone seems close but is moving further away. Everything that's whole is gone, i'm leaving this place. I will not give it up. Render the shell i drop underneath the surface Silence within Reborn Retinal detachment I don't feel and my soul just can't comprehend drifting into the unknown. Everyone is close but moving further away. Everything that is whole is gone, i'm leaving this place. I will not give it up.

On the first full-length album under the FERN moniker, drummer Paul Seidel serves his dark poetry with deceptively catchy tunes and chunky grooves you can step to. Balancing between the emotional experimental pop music of Björk and the punishing industrial rock of Nine Inch Nails,

FERN explores the fast-changing nature of reality in our digital society through a filter of moody synths, painfully precise drumming, and a fearless vocal delivery.
