SERUM 114 doubled down their musical power: punk meets modern rock!
German punk rockers SERUM 114 have been kicking up the fuss for over 10 years with their hard-hitting blend of punk and modern rock – without counting bruises or scars! Today, the punk rock unit releases their new single, "Abgefucktes Leben" (engl. “fucked up life”), along with an authentic music video, fresh off their upcoming album Im Zeichen der Zeit (engl. “signs of time”), to be released via Napalm Records on September 18, 2020. Following their chart-topping longplayer Die Nacht Mein Freund (engl. “the night is my friend”) (GER #3), the new full-length includes 14 energetic tracks, careening towards a rock break-out.
As a harbinger of the upcoming album their second single “Abgefucktes Leben” delivers pure modern rock. Wearing their punk rock attitude on their sleeves, the mid-tempo anthem illuminates the simplicity of daily life. The accompanying audio-visual hits the nail on the head and showcases that SERUM 114 aren’t preoccupied with taking themselves too seriously. With their new offering, they double down on their musical power and present themselves stronger than ever before: lyrically, musically and stylistically!
SERUM 114 on their new single “Abgefucktes Leben”:
"An ode to banality and the lightness of being. An homage to the child in our heads and the Peter Pan in our hearts. Today the rest of the world can take themselves seriously – we won’t!"
The new album, Im Zeichen der Zeit, presents 14 energetic modern rock tracks: In an honest and authentic punk rock manner, "Freiheit" (engl. “freedom”) invites the listener to reflect on moments filled with happiness, to center themselves and find balance within, even if it’s just for a short amount of time. The mid-tempo anthem “Abgefucktes Leben” (engl. “fucked up life”) is driven by its unmistakably catchy chorus and dedicated to the simplicity of daily life. Esche’s rough vocals classify the band’s unique trademark, whilst pushing their songs, such as “Meine Band” (engl. “my band”), to a highly energetic level.
Despite wearing their punk rock attitude on their sleeves, SERUM 114 is also capable of slowing down: “ Wir scheitern voran” (engl. “we fail”) is a powerful ballad of failure and unveils an unusually calm side of the band.
