“Started in Berlin and relocated to Rome, SNEERS.’ music is a devilish and hallucinatory march into the depths of human bleakness, characterized by the emotionally overpowering narrative of Blaankart’s lyrics. The band’s blood-filled poetry and luminous melancholia are odes to spirituality and guilt.' SNEERS.’ musical exploration of heaven and hell was best documented on the band’s 2018's studio album,"Heaven Will Rescue Us, We're the Scum, We're in the Sun”, with the studio collaboration of Kristof Hahn of Swans at the lap-steel guitar and released by God Unknown Records.”

“When Maria BC is singing, they feel as though they’re dissolving and soaring, all at once. Hyaline, the title of their debut full-length album, describes something that is clear and translucent like glass, especially a smooth sea. For the Ohio-born, Oakland, CA-based artist, songwriting is a stretched blank canvas awaiting the strokes of an exhale, and it’s this slow-moving process that rewards us the ease of a crystalline sky, without forgetting the clouds that may have come before it. A knife's-edge balance of intimacy and ambiguity, Hyaline accesses snapshots of grief, anxiety and wonder through a miscellany of specters: these are ghost stories, but not as we know them.”
