Popular Demain, by Alarmist

Popular Demain

by Alarmist

supported by

Julien Gracq Where have these guys been hiding? Incredible complex compositions, warm analog textures, detuned synth... oh, so good. Favorite track: Cordillera.

Maximilian Trieder a masterpiece! massive, orchestral, playful and clever. Favorite track: Petrichor.

Timek In 20 years, no one would listen to the radio shalala. Alarmist are my Beatles from tommorow. I can't wait to hear in which direction future artists will go with this background. ;) Maybe I’m wrong with my forecast, but this album will knock your socks off! Favorite track: Cordillera.

Augmented Fourth Alarmist are genius at what they do. Once you get to know them, their aesthetic is impossible to mistake. They might sound like math rock but their orchestration is complex in its refusal to assign any one instrument or voice to a single role for a whole song, a balancing act usually only expected of classical composers. Between the delicate orchestration, songwriting, and sometimes crushingly beautiful themes (see: Petrichor), I couldn't pick a favorite.

Deidre House Sounds like the combination of Jaga Jazzist and Battles, 2 bands I'm quite fond of. I've been highly impressed by every release from Alarmist and their full-length debut is shaping up to do the same. Favorite track: CGI Sky.

own instrumental space, gravitationally pulled toward a rock aesthetic but constantly implying
other philosophies in a way that excites.” 12 Points Festival

I've listened to this album for years and I still don't know what to say about it. One of the best albums I've ever heard and there are few things that sound so right to me at all much less in their near entirety. I love this album and I love this band's music. yehoodi

I could listen to this song for hours on repeat. The whole album is something else, I can't fully explain, but it definitely takes me away from this world and places me in a euphoric dystopia. Alexander Tome
