Swedish ABU NEIN has quickly risen to one of the most interesting acts in the dark wave/postpunk scene. With the release of their debut "Secular Psalms" and the follow-up "II", they injected the scene with new vitality. Now they return with their strongest work so far. The new album also became the last ever album produced by Andreas Catjar-Danielsson (Covenant, ABU NEIN, Down in June etc.), that sadly passed away of cancer on July 29 2024.
The band writes: "We are equally haunted and healed from the reverberations of our latest creation “Dark Faith”. This album emerged from a place of profound sadness. What will be unfold is as familiar as it is foreboding, confronting us with the complexities of existence. The musical layers of this album, delicately produced by our late friend and confidant Andreas Catjar-Danielsson, resonates with the weight of unspoken truths. His mastery, in this last production of his, will linger in our thoughts and forever echo in our hearts."
Released mid-September 2024 on Progress Productions.
