The Halo Trees new album Where The Deep Ends

After three meticulous years of work, the new The Halo Trees album “Where The Deep Ends” is finally finished. It’s a beautiful headphone album for melancholic hours with a rather calm mood. Deep male vocals and a sad violin go together with atmospheric guitars and groovy bass and organic drums. Indie Rock meets some Post-Punk vibes and some Progressive Rock elements that are subtly woven in unusual harmonies or crooked bars that make the songs interesting. What the band calls Deep Dark Indie Rock is an eclectic sound that should appeal to listeners from The National to David Bowie to Nick Cave. 
 

The previous two albums “Antennas To The Sky” (2019) and “Summergloom” (2021) could also convince the media. The album “Summergloom” then even stayed in the German Alternative Charts (DAC) for the maximum duration of 8 weeks. And also the most recent singles “Big Bang Coming” and “Escapism” all made it into the DAC charts. 

With “Where The Deep Ends” The Halo Trees present a rather quiet album that goes into great depth both musically and in terms of content. Singer Sascha Blach asks many questions about meaning and deals with topics such as feeling strange in the world, happiness, truth, love, nostalgia and longing in poetic texts. He has also written a book that will be distributed alongside the album. Both are only available in physical form as a package.

In this book, Blach presents images, short stories, philosophical texts, poems, and commentaries that expand on the ten songs of the album „Where The Deep Ends“ in various ways. The texts are dark, hopeful, ironic, emotional, thoughtful and enigmatic all at the same time. Blach delves deeper into the content of the songs,  but does not shy away from giving them new layers of meaning. A little gem for anyone who likes to philosophize and for whom music is more than just background entertainment.

The musical journey of The Halo Trees has just begun, and chances are we’re about to witness one of Germany’s most promising alternative bands …
