Following the momentum gained with their third album, Echo Drama, released in March 2024, Turkish darkwave/post-punk duo Ductape have continued to carve their place within the global scene. The singles "Ölüm Günüm", "Blue Black", and "Fade Away", along with the Echo Drama Deluxe edition, further solidified the band's distinct identity: raw, intimate, and relentlessly driven.
During an intense touring schedule that spanned continents, Ductape began shaping their next full-length record, refusing to pause their creative momentum. Their upcoming album, Faded Flowers, is scheduled for 2026. The first glimpse arrives with the video single "Fine"!
The band, which has already performed extensively in Europe this year and has just completed one tour, returns to European stages on 1 November, heads to Latin America on 19 November, and returns to Europe on 12 December. Link
