Young And Cold Records – YCR/167 (2024)
After their 2023 debut Minialbum "Capture", the southern German duo YAKIMA JERA is back with a brabd new 8-Tracks Album. Named after an Islamic death angel and with artwork on the cover inspired by alchemical symbols, the album is not as mystical as one might think.
While "Capture" was still characterized by long, quite complex songs, "Azrael take My Hand" starts with "The House" with an Electro sequence that immediately hits your ears and legs and heads towards a climax that will spark enthusiasm especially live. The following "Kara" is one of the few longer pieces that follows directly on from the debut, but does not lack catchiness. "Felt Love" is danceable Electro - with slight echoes of Boy Harsher or Tempers - and "Nothing remains" has a nice melancholic Wave atmosphere with slight Eastern European overtones. "Kiss Me To Hell" is a little lighter and "End Hell" has everything a typical Darkwave hit needs nowadays. "Fire" goes in a similar direction before the album ends with the much darker title song "Azrael take My Hand". Less coherent than its predecessor, this album is more song-oriented, meaning that each song stands on its own, but is still convincing.
The record contains club-friendly material as well as wavy stuff for listing at home and songs that probably unfold their power particularly live. YAKIMA JERA should earn a good place for themselves in the ever flourishing Darkwave scene, which is particularly due to the very good vocals, which here and there are even reminiscent of Faith And The Muse.
