Die britische Post-Hardcore Band Polar kündigt mit „Nova“ ihr brandneues Album an, das am 05. April auf den Markt kommen wird. Passend dazu zieht es Polar natürlich auch auf die Bühne, um die rund zwölf neuen Songs live zu präsentieren. In diesem Zuge macht der Fünfer aus London am 12. Mai auch im Lux Club in Hannover Halt – präsentiert vom Count Your Bruises Magazine. Als Support ist die Melodic Hardcore Band Tripsitter mit dabei.
Auf „Nova“ zeigen sich laut eigener Aussagen weitaus kreativer und sogar etwas poppiger – allerdings auf eine ganz spezielle Art und Weise. Dabei aber wie gewohnt heavy und voller Leidenschaft zur Musik. Gitarrist Fabian Lomas erklärt zum Album:
„A nova is described as the brightest burning star and we felt that this album was going to be our brightest material. Before we wrote about things that we saw in the world and were passionate about. Some people even used to think that we were becoming a political band. This time the things we are writing about are much more personal to us. It’s a lot more rewarding. We all have different ups and downs in life and the band and we have such a perfect platform to deliver these feelings. We are touching on some very personal subjects that are close to our heart. As we have got older in life there are different things that happen to us. We have this forum where we can talk specifically about them and when certain people know that certain songs are about them it’s touching for them and rewarding for us.“
