Martina Berther and Philipp Schlotter return to Hallow Ground with their second collaborative album since 2023’s stringent exercise in drone minimalism, Silence Will Never Die was recorded at the same church in the Canton of Glarus that
lent its name to the duo’s debut. Once more the Church of Matt’s organ plays a significant role on these five pieces that navigate between composition and improvisation. However, the two prolific musicians aimed for an even more diverse sonic and stylistic palette. They brought new instruments into the fold to record an album that marries subtlety with complexity, the ephemeral with corporality. These five pieces are auditive microcosms that carry a calm but concentrated energy within them, that are repetitive and result from our bodies’ movements, as Schlotter and Berther put it. Silence Will Never Die is as ethereal as it is visceral.
