We either have you at the line “a British-German dark wave duo formed in 2010” or we’ve lost you. For those on sentence two, stick with! Lebanon Hanover are damn good. If you listen to a track like Alien, you’ll hear guitar riffs which will fire up The Cure/Depeche Mode synapses. And voices which call to mind Anika and Marc Almond. Ellen Allien has been remixing them too, of late. This is a band for Cold War spies, shady laneways and snowflakes which crystallise. Come in from the cold and embrace them.
