Spiritual Front – Amour Braque

Spiritual Front is a five-part neofolk act from Rome. Its members describe their music as “nihilist suicide pop”, although elements of neoclassical and rock music, melancholic folk, as well as tango are prevalent, along with a recurring experimental feel. From dark, wailing experimental folk in the beginning, the sound began to transform and grow, to where it is now compared to the work of Nick Cave, Swans, and Scott Walker. The ingenuity and constructiveness of Spiritual Front’s songs have gained them somewhat of a cult following since their formation in the late 1990s. In March 2018, five years after the compilation album Open Wounds, the Italian ‘suicide pop’ trio released the album Amour Braque. French for ‘Mad Love’, Amour Braque is conceptually described as “a sincere and cruel analysis of what love/sex relations are, a path that switches between tenderness and rot”.
