Belgian five-piece Whispering Sons brings a dark and unique blend of experimental and frenetic post-punk. The propulsive instrumentation combined with Fenne Kuppens’ deep vocal delivery amounts to a constant sense of unease that’s been inherent in their music since the beginnings. With their energetic and captivating performance, the band has firmly cemented themselves as a must-see live act.
Following the dark, expansive power of 2018’s 'Image' and 2021’s minimal 'Several Others', Whispering Sons’ third album 'The Great Calm' represents a reimagining and rethinking, though this growth has produced a series of songs that are still defiantly and uniquely true to the group. Recorded in four weeks – two in the Audioworkx studio near Eindhoven, Holland, before being finished at the start of 2023 using a homemade set-up on Vlieland, a small Dutch island just off the North Sea coast – the power, energy and beauty behind The Great Calm’s making is etched through the heart of each of its 12 songs. Songs like the visceral and intense Dragging, the intimate Still, Disappearing which is guided by natural, subtle saxophone, and the multiple lyrical perspectives of Poor Girl, with opens in hushed tones before almost ripping itself apart, serve to underline the album’s range, musically and emotionally.
