FOLLOW Die Kammer VIA:
Die Kammer’s latest album, “Season V: Maybe Forgotten.” Maybe Glorious is a profoundly touching and experimental masterpiece. This album, created by the outstanding pair Matthias Ambré and Marcus Testory, explores the depths of human emotion.
Marcus Testory’s vocals and Matthias Ambré’s acoustic skills remain. However, they are encased in a completely new layer of electronic beats and loops. This adds some muscle to their usual melancholic mood, making the whole thing deeper and more textured. The title track itself hints at what the album is about: thinking about what we leave behind. The lyrics ask, “In the end, we’ll be the heroes of our stories. In the end, maybe forgotten, maybe glorious,” making you wonder about how people will remember us. The music on this piece of music nicely matches, seamlessly pairing the sad cello lines with the strong electronic pulse.

A few songs really stick out. “Ignoring My Safeword” is a shot of energy with its fast pace and edgy guitars, while “The Void” slows things down and lets Testory’s powerful voice shine over some haunting cello melodies. “Melancholy Milkshake” throws in a bit of humor with its funny title and playful lyrics, offering a nice break from the album’s more serious moments.
Season V: Maybe Forgotten. Maybe Glorious.
This new sound is all thanks to Die Kammer’s willingness to take chances and grow as a musician. When the pandemic forced them to shrink their band from a bigger group to just four people, it ended up sparking some creativity. This change gave them the chance to explore electronic sounds, and the result is a sound that feels both familiar and brand new.
“Season V: Maybe Forgotten. Maybe Glorious.” The sad lyrics, personal stories, and cool mix of acoustic and electronic sounds make for an album that’s both moving and interesting to listen to.
