The album is a result of a year that we all will never forget. Maybe a year we all lost a future we thought we had. Its influenced by many strokes of fate of Matthias like a fatal crash that nearly costs his left leg. So its an atmospheric dark work that shows all sides of a dramatic year with and without the pandemic. Some songs like ADORE U, WHEN HAVE YOU GONE MAD and DONT TRY TO SOOTHE ME are impressed directly by the pandemic situation but there are also very personal songs like U R THE ONE and SUMMERNIGHT. GOD KNOWS, DANCE TOMORROW and UNIFORM allready showed its live-potential during the last concerts in Saint Petersburg and Moscow in 2019. Since years with OHNE DICH you can find a new German song on a NOVA-SPES album including a premiere: Guido took part of the second voice for the first time.“Its really hard to describe an album I wrote. Especially ?2020? is not easy cause I don?t care for any danceability or atmosphere when I wrote the songs. It was a process of opening my mind and telling my story and on its end the result was the album that you could love or hate. But I can say listen loud and in stereo!”

We are really terrified of a third, maybe a last, worldwar but it seems as it is okay if worldpowers fights its wars far away from our cozy houses we are sitting in, watching TV and surfing the internet. We are spectators! In 2018 death is far away and to the strangers. We have a defined WORLDWIDEWAR ZONE! So first of all the album conveys an overwhelming emotion without renouncing the suitabilitiy for dancefloors of scene clubs. Unfortunately the band announces that they no longer playing live. Thats pity cause they allready showed how good tracks like PRAY, I LOVE U I HATE U and STANDING BACK are working. They played it at the last three concerts they performed in 2016/2017. The audience loved it. Maybe this decision is not final.Its a typical NOVA-SPES-album. Typical for NOVA-SPES means atypical song structures, uncommon sounds and surprises. Every song seems from another artist. Only the voice of Matthias is a constant in every single track but in different variations. Hard and aggressive, soft and warm, clear and pervasive. So the album doesn?t become boring but it isn?t that kind of music you listen and love immediately. Like every NOVA-SPES-release you have to invest time and feelings to conquer it. And then you will love it. Thats NOVA-SPES!
