Three years after the second album "TRANSIT" and the EP "SAMMLUNG 2" in 2024, Das Paradies' third album will be released in September this year. "EVERYWHERE WHERE THERE ARE PEOPLE". The title casts its shadow and its light ahead. Two songs have already been released on a double single since spring. A keyhole view into the upcoming album.
On the A-side of the first single, Florian Sievers alias Das Paradies leans back a little with "AN EINEM KIRSCHBAUM IN EINEM SOMMER" and reaches for fragments of indie rock from past decades. Blumfeld or Lassie Singers are possible associations from indie Germany. Driving guitars open up sinuously into big chords. In between, shreds of vocal effects in the style of Arthur Russel from New York in the 80s. And when asked about the drums, the name Roxette haunted the corridors of Krokant, the label co-founded by Sievers. Touché.
The world is nervous in the first glimpses of das Paradies' new album. It is about to evaporate in a kind of progress, while it rattles on and on, on the cube that calls itself Earth. "BEI DEN REGENDROPS", a warm but knowing embrace on the B-side of the first double single, makes it clear that escapism is not an option. We fall, for all the imagined beauty of the molecules, "back to the same old world".
Welcome back to these very paradisiacal scenarios, in Florian Siever's idiosyncratic style. On DAS PARADIES' third album, there is also the psychedelia of the long look. The broken real romanticism. Sung with solemn calm. A recipe that galvanizes paradise songs into Trojan magnets. "EVERYWHERE PEOPLE ARE" - everywhere from September 26, 2025.
