    Norwegian Grammy-Winning industrial rock band Seigmen are back with a new albumcalled “Resonans” on May 3rd, 2024.

    Ask yourself the question: How many bands have maintained the same lineup throughout a career spanning over three decades? Just count and see how far you get. Seigmen is and remains Alex, Sverre, Noralf, Kim, and Marius.

    Seigmen's new albumResonans echoes the essence of a longstanding friendship. A strong bond among five guys who found each other through music, learned to play instruments, and express themselves together. They solidified their friendship through muddy and sour tones from the rehearsal room on the old submarine quay, down into a basement in the city center, out to a barn outside the city, up on the heights near the old library, down into the mountain beneath the same hill, and back to a rehearsal container at the old shipyard. Always tied to their home town, Tønsberg in Norway.
    Resonans is the reverberation of endless evening rehearsals, weekends with “lefse” and freshly ground coffee in thermoses, and syncopations. Smiles, conversations, and gossip. The hard, precise, and long-term work. Love and art.

    Resonans is guts and integrity, demonstrating the uncompromising nature that Seigmen has always represented.

about

Today, Seigmen release "Kollaps" (Collapse). Their second single is taken from the upcoming album "Resonans," which is set to be released this April.

Through their devotion to details and their immediate environment and the people populating it. Through their strong use of words and powerful dramaturgy, Seigmen’s lyrics become universal and timeless.
The result are songs where love is always at the core, veiled and twisted in a blend of desperation and hope, but always accessible and unmistakably Seigmen.

Seigmen's universe is filled with clues to their source of inspiration. This is not often brought to light, but on "Kollaps," the initiated listener will recognize text references in both verses and choruses to West German industrial pioneers; «Min venn, was glaubst du denn?»

Some of the sonic elements in "Kollaps" are the recording of an angle grinder used by Kim Ljung's father in law while assembling shelves for old tape decks, effects, and synthesizers in his home studio.
The sound of strings heard in the chorus is generated by almost 50-year-old synthesizers, purchased at Supersonic (a legendary Norwegian music store) before the band recorded their classic album "Radiowaves" in '96.

lyrics

LYRICS:

Om verden kollapser

Så hva så hva

Om verden kollapser

Ennå en dag

Ennå en dag

Ennå en dag til å bli gal av

Ennå en dag

Så om verden kollapser

Så hva så hva

Hva om verden kollapser, yeah

I det verden kollapser ser vi

Ting vi ikke så før

En skjønnhet i kaos og opprør

Ennå en dag

Ennå en dag

Ennå en dag uten deg

Ennå en dag

Lyset som strømmer inn

Lyset som stråler ut

Om verden kollapser

Så hva så hva

Verden kollapser, yeah

Å min venn

Was glaubst du denn

Ja betyr nei

Vi er fler som deg

Vi er fler som deg

Så om verden kollapser

Så hva så hvaI det verden kollapser, yeah

Å min venn

Was glaubst du denn

Ja betyr nei

Vi er fler som deg

Du er ment for meg
