Lebanon Hanover
Do true romantics still exist in these severe and cynical times? The Swiss Larissa Iceglass and the Brit William Maybelline could be the answer to this question. With their dark wave band project Lebanon Hanover, they give the alienated world the cold shoulder. Fascinated by the beauty of Art Nouveau aesthetics, the coasts of Great Britain, nocturnal forests, and the urbanity of Berlin, this duo creates a pulsating sound of synths, deep basslines, and programmed rhythms. Singer Larissa Iceglass’s delicate yet haunting vocals penetrate the ear and catapult the listener to a place between nostalgia and reality. An escape from everyday life. An ode to sadness. With this, Lebanon Hanover proves: »Sadness Is Rebellion.«
