Anna by Wermut
The third album of post-apocalyptic minimal electro twosome WERMUT tells the story of Anna, a wooden Colin Archer yacht, which was build in the late 70s by Reiner and Petra, out of the desperate need to seek beyond their horizons. The cherished boat would lead them on a magic three-year-long journey to Scandinavia, Ireland, over the Atlantic and back.
A tale of passion, of revelation, of freedom …but also of loneliness and introspection.
WERMUT and their guest musicians HIS DIVINE GRACE and FRL. TOST give us the soundtrack to this outer and inner quest. A soothing mixture of acoustic music, electro-wave anthems and “fall on your knees”-ambient, ANNA combines magnificently both the folk and retro-electro influences of “Les cinq-à-sept post-néoistes” and “Hoffnung”.
Originally released on CD by Punch Records in 2005.

WERMUT was founded in 2001 in Hamburg, Germany, by Laszlo P.S. and Sofia E.R..
Defying any easy genre-labelling, their music moves insidiously from post-apocalyptic minimal-wave to psychedelic prog-electro with folk and industrial undertones. WERMUT claim Tradition in general and the works of French metaphysician René Guénon in particular as their main source of inspiration.
