“Imagine RADIOHEAD if they weren’t weighed down with all that baggage.”
(Electronic Sound Magazine)
AUA’s third studio album, Painkiller No. 1, marks the culmination of a compelling trilogy that showcases the evolution of the duo’s sound and vision. Following the introspective depths of The Damaged Organ (2022) and the explosive exuberance of their debut, I Don’t Want It Darker (2020), the latest offering by multi-instrumentalists Fabian Bremer and Henrik Eichmann is a testament to their dynamic artistry and enduring friendship. Once again written and self-recorded between their home studios and a remote vacation cabin, Painkiller No. 1 is an intricate mosaic of sonic variety and complex songwriting, reflecting the band’s pursuit to keep things moving.
Teaming up with mixing and mastering engineer Magnus Wichmann has led to a more polished and transparent production while retaining the grittiness typical for AUA’s sound. For the visual component, the collaboration continues between the band’s own Fabian Bremer and Serbian artist Mihailo Kalabic, whose surreal digital sculptures perfectly complement the album’s nuanced and tangled themes.
