The Beauty of Gemina

THE BEAUTY OF GEMINA - ISCARIOT BLUES.
Five years after the highly considered debut album and two more albums acclaimed by fans and the media the charismatic and keen singer-songwriter Michael Sele is afresh launching a further eagerly anticipated studio album: ISCARIOT BLUES. He's leading his THE BEAUTY OF GEMINA project - accompanied by the musicians David Vetsch (bass) and Mac Vincens (drums) - onto the next level. In doing so, Michael Sele is acting even more song-oriented compared to his prior albums, showing his whole range of experience, inventiveness and musical changeableness. In the ten hymn-like and diversely arranged tracks the band leader seduces the listener with his dark timbre, lures hypnotically, constantly driving by powerful vocals and an unmistakable guitar play. In so doing he skilfully shuttles between melancholic intimacy and stadium sound, processing rock, wave, goth and blues influences. Betrayal, liberation and departure are central topics on ISCARIOT BLUES. On the one hand Michael Sele reveals his habitual darkness; on the other hand he appears growingly political, proclaiming a new revolution and thus predicting an according cultural and social change of paradigms.
THE BEAUTY OF GEMINA conceive themselves as a modern rock band orbiting close to the spirit of the age. Nonetheless, their sound knowingly eludes a clear musical categorisation. A distinctive voice as primary component, psychedelic guitar sounds, driving electronic devices, acoustic elements and profound lyrics peak to an arc of suspense, belt the mighty, epic-dark songs and reflect Michael Sele's atmospheric and at the same time daunting imagery output. Voyaging into a luminous future, THE BEAUTY OF GEMINA with their new album ISCARIOT BLUES are staging an opus of timeless-dark elegance, guiding their unique style to perfection.
