GERM
Wish

Germ, the solo band of Tim (Austere (rip), Grey Waters (rip), ex-Nazxul, ex-Woods of Desolation, etc), had always been lurking beneath the shadows of his other bands. That is until 2012, when Germ came bursting onto the scene with the debut album ‘Wish’, and follow up EP ‘Loss’. Already critics were praising the huge step forward compositionally between those two releases, and that now continues with ‘Grief’. At once another huge step forward for Germ, ‘Grief’ also takes a step back towards Tim’s Black Metal roots by placing more emphasis on guitar this time around. The album also features a stunning guest appearance by Audrey Sylvain (Amesoeurs, Peste Noire), as she lends her amazing voice to two songs. At 13 tracks, and over 69 minutes long, ‘Grief’ is another journey into Tim’s twisted mind, and definitely one not to be missed.

Germ is currently the main sphere of activity for Tim Yatras (once Woods Of Desolation, Austere, Grey Waters and more). With his releases so far - "Wish", "Loss" (both 2012) and "Grief" (2013) -, he established a unique style that he fittingly described as "Experimental Depressive Black Music" - a sonic construct with a foundation of Depressive Black Metal, augmented by electronic elements and almost poppy accessibility.
With "Escape", the artist hands in his much-anticipated fourth record, the arguably darkest in his discography so far. Decisively autobiographical, it tackles a feeling of both internal and external imprisonment which strongly influenced Yatras during songwriting.
