Despite the Wane

Despite The Wane" is a band based in Rome, Italy.
They bring forth their project with enthusiasm and determination, no matter the cynicism and the aloof attitude of the professionals in the music sector.
The awareness of the quality of their music and the desire to bring it to an interested and open-minded audience have always supported their ambition.
The band revolves around the two original members: Mir Kollins (the project's creator), vocals and synths, author and arranger and Max Dury, lead guitar, sheer technique, magnetic touch, and accurate ear.
Together, they create, play, arrange and produce their songs. Their sound recalls the British New Wave and elicits progressive, alternative, gothic, and electronic rock suggestions. The focus on the lyrics is utterly paramount: the words are sustained by creative melody lines, powerful guitar riffs mark the most relevant passages, and the deep, enticing leading voice stands out for its evocative capacity.
At the very heart of their songs, indeed, you can feel the search for an answer, the inner journey as a metaphor for a change, the need to know and understand the mystery of life, the hurting for a loss, and the determination to rise against the incomprehensible suffering of the human condition.
In their productions there is no nostalgia but a constant curiosity toward the present and the urgency to connect honestly and open-heartedly with their audience.
