Terminal Serious- Tear You Away

Label: Swiss Dark Night

Released 10/24/2025

First print of 500 copies, in Digipak and extended lyrics booklet Pride and shame, envy and boredom, fear and loneliness, dependence and incontinence; recurring emotions, moods, and thoughts that tear you away from serenity with explosive force. A journey through the pain and contradictions of everyday life that nevertheless delivers a message of hope and rebirth. A year and a half after their strong album "Fear and Cure", Terminal Serious returns with their third full length "Tear you away" - An album with a more wave-oriented sound than before, but with the characteristic refined guitars and the unmistakable deep voice. The style is still deeply rooted in dark-wave but with new Cold Wave nuances - post punk but with alternative influences. For the first time Terminal Serious gives up the electric bass as a rhythm tool and uses old Roland analog synthesizers instead, which add a good portion of Cold Wave to the new tracks; the guitar sound changed, too: Once the overdrive is permanently turned off, the overall sound becomes more elegant and refined. The inspirations come from literature, from great classics such as Virgil, Dante and Petrarch, but at the same time from the daily life and stories of individuals ,struggling with their complicated lives.
