LAUDARE - Reqiuem LP

Laudare is all about poetry – in words and composition. The quartet consisting of guitar, bass, drums and cello is cutting its own path, passing by Post and Progressive Rock, Metal, Folk and Neo-Classical Music, yet staying unsettled at last.

The band from Leipzig was founded in 2017 and has been playing a vast of shows all over Germany and abroad. In 2018 it released its debut „d.é.o.m.é“ with founding-member Jakob (Ex-Amber, Yanos) playing the drums. The EP „Have Heart, Waste Flesh“ followed in 2020 featuring Jakob as well as Oliver (Wisent, Desitllat) as the new drummer.
Also, Almut enriches the line-up by the Cello and her beautiful voice ever since – captured on film and audio for the first time during the Jadeturm live Session in September 2022.
It’s been quiet around Laudare lately: a new album is carving its way to the surface. A „Requiem“ about the inevitable, that we fear so much and that makes us human after all.

The songwriting is outstanding and a class of its own. The self classification as 'violent poetry' gets clearer with every song. Calm, melodic, spoken word passages as the poetry and harsh and hectic parts, that mark the violent counterpart.
