(Psychedelic Rock, Shoegaze) The Frozen Borderline - Sadness As A Gift - 2016, MP3, 320 kbps

2006 - 2010 was a busy time for Nils Ottensmeyer, and at last it seems the world is catching up. Best known as founding member and lead singer of german cult dark-psych heroes, The Blue Angel Lounge, The Frozen Borderline is Ottensmeyers solo project. Sadness As A Gift was recorded sporadically, often in his living room starting in 2007. While comparisons between TFB and TBAL naturally exist, the moving melodies and personal lovelorn aura give The Frozen Borderline a character of its own. The songs conjur a visual landscape of Ottensmeyers world, both spontaneous, pure, and without compromise.
