Deamon’s Child Announce Breakup & Hint at Future Project
After three albums and a live record and demo and whatnot, German progressive noise rocking three-piece Deamon’s Child have announced they’re calling it a day. Their explanation of it via thee social medias — which you can read below — doesn’t get into to specific circumstances, but I think it emphasizes one way or another that the core of what Deamon’s Child were was in the emotional bond between the members, bassist/vocalist Ana Muhi, guitarist Sven Missullis and drummer Tim Mohr, and without that, there isn’t a band, so, in essence, there isn’t a band. It’s a more open and honest way of acknowledging the depths of relationships that form between band members — anyone who tells you it isn’t like being married probably isn’t married — than saying “this isn’t fun anymore,” which is what you sometimes get. Respect to Deamon’s Child either way for hanging it up rather than pressing on because they feel obligated.
Muhi and Missullis will reportedly start a new project together sometime in the near future. Like, maybe later this week. Hey, waste no time. I’m not saying I’ve heard anything or anything like that or know the name of the new band or there’s a teaser coming soon or who said “teaser?” or anything like that, but just keep your eyes peeled.
Here’s what they had to say:
Deamon’s Child quit
Dear friends,
It’s hard for us to find the right words for a sad message.
The three of us decided to finish this project and go new paths.
Deamon’s child dissolves.
It feels unreal and surprising on the one hand, because we’ve just been working on new songs with passion. On the other hand, it feels consistent and authentic, because we have also realized that we want to give each other the space and take each other that we need.
We have the urge to develop, but in some points different needs. In our opinion, a compromise is not the right way here, because it would destroy what we stood and stand for. The three of us distinguishes a certain uncompromising in musical terms, whose consequence we hereby bear. Life has enough necessities, but a band is not necessary. A band should be free.
Deamon’s child came and raged with a loud bang, was allowed to grow with us and become what it is. The time has come to let go.
We will keep this band and the time we were able to experience together with you as unique in memory.
Let’s stay authentic and wild in deamon’s world. Let’s make them a better place.
Let’s stay loud and human.
Let’s be louder than hatred and stupidity of human enemies.
Let’s express together – everyone in their own way, but clearly.
Let’s stop the destruction of our livelihoods and humane values.
Deamon’s child will live on in us and naively believe in the power of the adult man. It believes to be able to take over the direction for a good life.
You hear from us.
It’s brewing, it’s trapping.
Deamon’s child will be in a better world, but we still have a lot to do here.
First we lick the wounds and then we licked blood what wants to let out.
It’s wild raw, it’s unleashed, it’s in progress.
We thank you for having accompanied us on our way.
In Respect.
In Love.
Goodbye.
Deamon’s child
