ROME
BERLIN

This surprising new star on the apocalyptic-folk-scene sprouts from the punk and sing-songwriter genres, and has now combined these attitudes with a sombre and experimental martial-folk with a strong personal imprint. ROME is about emotive songs that are both catchy and disturbed. These songs awake memories of love and death, with the reoccurring themes of despair and loss, guilt and grief, might and war. With the cynical opening line "Once we learned to speak we learned to fail", the band sets a grand colour to this exquisite candy piece of 6 exclusive songs.
