Background information about 'Konkurs'

Swedish depressive black metal legends Lifelover deliver their most devastating statement with "Konkurs", an album that redefined what extreme metal could be. This third full-length stands as the band's most experimental and emotionally brutal work, weaving together black metal's raw aggression with unexpected elements of indie-pop, post-punk, and shoegaze into something utterly unique. The album captures the essence of urban decay and modern alienation with a haunting beauty that's both disturbing and mesmerizing.

"Konkurs" showcases Lifelover's ability to shift seamlessly between crushing despair and moments of twisted euphoria. Tracks like "Mental Central Dialog" and "Narcotic Devotion" demonstrate the band's mastery of their self-coined "narcotic metal" sound, while songs like "Shallow" and "Bitter Reflektion" reveal layers of complexity that reward repeated listening. The production perfectly balances the lo-fi aesthetic with clarity that allows every disturbing detail to pierce through the sonic haze.

For fans of: Shining, Bethlehem, Katatonia, Woods Of Desolation and Hypothermia
