Dune Messiah develops misanthropic persona on the new album Moments of Bliss
The Danish folk-noir artist Dune Messiah, unfolds a universe of black romance and mysticism. On March 29, he is publishing his second studio album "Moments of Bliss", through French label Third Coming Records and German label Aufnahme + Wiedergabe.
Throughout the album we get to know a kind of isolated character express his bitter emotions and pity for humanity. A misanthrope who is outside the common society and sometimes with a sense of jealousy tries to reach out towards it. The character often finds himself hopelessly in love with a female figure, or in hateful envy and with a burning desire to destroy or degrade the female figure as a reaction to this.
The album moves through many genres, ranging from jazzy improvisations on trumpet, to american country music a'la Hank Williams, to ballads with a calypso, lonely wedding-keyboard player feel to it. All of which is narrated through the same gothic folk style that Dune Messiah has put out thus far. The genre can be described as a folk-noir, in the same way as the old films deal with grand emotions and the romantic, but at the same time possess the eerie and gloomy. There is a certain outlandish and perhaps rather French touch in the music, which paints with large brush strokes. Magnus has a consistent Leonard Cohen reference, but is constantly moving in his own interpretation of the artist's piercing poetic expression.
Magnus explains how ever since he started playing music (guitar and drums) as a 13 year old, he has had a burning desire to be able to write a song one day, but he never succeeded in that, he explains. However, the songs came to him suddenly and easily when he was divorced from his ex-wife.
