Swiss post‑punk/shoegaze/industrial shapeshifter Sauvageoness has released “Rather In Harmony”, the third single from the upcoming album A Maze Deep In, due out on 22 May. The project also confirms that the official release celebration will take place at Toxoplasmose Festival in Sonvilier (CH) on Wednesday, 27 May.
Following the folk‑infused introspection of PHOEBE, Sauvageoness returns with a dramatic shift in sonic identity — a self‑described “doomed industrial dream pop” palette that pushes the project into darker, more ritualistic territory. A Maze Deep In unfolds as a haunted pilgrimage through love, memory, and metamorphosis, merging indie noise, shoegaze haze, post‑punk pulse, and the raw emotional voltage of black metal.
“Rather In Harmony” stands as one of the album’s most hypnotic moments. Innocent yet disarming vocals drift over a groovy, dance‑leaning rhythm, while a tense, shimmering melody builds a psychedelic post‑punk trance. Noise, shoegaze, and even faint grunge textures weave through the track, shaping a narrative about choice, diversity, and the fragile complexity of life — “like lace, impossible to simplify without tearing ourselves apart.”
The single also introduces the album’s third narrative thread: transformation and metamorphosis rituals, a recurring motif that binds the record’s emotional architecture. Accompanying the track is a vivid, colour‑saturated music film — a moving ode to the organic beauty of our “leaf‑nature,” full of motion, texture, and symbolic renewal. Link

"Goth people want to have fun sometimes too. I guess if your listening time is 99% dark, sad songs or evil black metal songs, sometimes you want 1% joy, and here I come." - Franck Hueso
