Lebanon Hanover - Babes Of The 80s '2016

Tracks list

 It has been a year since Lebanon Hanover showed us a place “Besides the
abyss,” their brilliant fourth studio album. As the withdrawal symptoms we
feel due to our addiction to this band started to threaten our existence, they
return to offer us once again their heart and soul in the form of a
12’’ maxi-single. Feelings close to misanthropy, disappointment,
lack of communication and trust in social and personal relationships are the
main ingredients of this record, which are combined with the most wonderful
melodies and the heavenly voices of Larissa and William. These songs evoke a
unique tenderness that overshadows the sadness, a power that takes us by the
hand and leads us to the dancefloor. And this is the magic power of Lebanon
Hanover, a band with a strong message towards/against society that makes us want
to dance to its melancholy. “The Babes of the 80’s” changes
both their musical and aesthetical style and LH surprise us once again by
showing us a new aspect of their artistic creation.

An ideal image of the bands elegance in full color, expressed by the wonderful
cover picture of Thomas Amras and the descent to the daily routine on the back
cover, are two strongly opposite components which perfectly visualize the music.
And the music itself comes with a unique totally synthesized power towards us,
full of emotion, without any bass and guitar parts. And the surprise
won’t stop. Two exceptional collaborations are to be found on this Maxi.
Two great artists are remixing the self-titled track, offering us another point
of view and even more acoustic pleasure: SHE PAST AWAY joins forces for the
first time with Lebanon Hanover, in a dark, intimate remix of the
“babes.” But also the cult italo-synth artist TOBIAS BERNSTRUP
contributes with a sensual and extremely danceable mix to this release. Written
and performed by William Maybelline and Larissa Iceglass [aka LEBANON HANOVER],
mastered by Doruk Öztürkcan [SHE PAST AWAY] this limited Maxi-Single can
already be described as a MUST HAVE collector’s item for every lover of
Lebanon Hanover and minimal!
