Monadsupport: Silvertongues

Monad - the shape-shifting indie-psych project of producer Esh Nachmany, who’s continuing his quiet pursuit of pop music's outer limits - delivers a lush collision of 60s jangle pop, 90s shoegaze, and 00s electronica; once described as ‘the sound of machines going wrong at the right time.’

Following the critical acclaim of the 2025 'Gift' EP, Monad has earned widespread support from The Guardian, CLASH, and The Line of Best Fit, alongside regular airplay on KEXP, Radio X, and KCRW. After extensive UK touring and festival appearances at Sound City and Dot to Dot Bristol, Monad are embarking on their debut German shows in spring 2026.

Caught between existential fear and substance-infused optimism? SILVERTONGUES
provide the soundtrack.
In the face of the inescapable compulsion to make either/or decisions, the Hamburg duo
SILVERTONGUES counter with an ironic "neither/nor" on their debut EP. With their mix
of catchy melodies, dystopian guitars, and a lived equality between female and male
vocals, Rike Rakete and Manuel de Rien create their own identity between wave-like
rock, sleazy pop, and psychedelic garage, wich elicits associations with Bands like
QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, BLOOD RED SHOES or THE KILLS. The five songs on

the „neither/nor“-EP reflect a sense of loneliness in crowds, the hypocritical expectati-
ons of others, and the all-too-human desire to push one’s own psychological and physi-
cal limits. The crisis persists, but it doesn't have to define you completely. In the sweet-
ness of fear, the awareness of endless possibilities can no longer hide. And who said

you can't feel good in the process?
It's not the fear of standing on a cliff and falling down. It's the fear of plummeting
oneself. SILVERTONGUES are here to catch you.
