“"If New Order and The Cure made a band, it would most likely sound like this." ” - Tunecore Fan Reviews
ANY MIRACLE was founded in spring 2022. The members of the darkwave trio from the greater Mainz area, Germany, are united by their love of Gothic Culture and Post Punk. For their music they also draw from their own past, among others as founding members of the 90s gothic rock band Forthcoming Fire.
Now, for the first time, keyboardist Burn moves to the microphone as frontman and, as vocalist and lyricist, gives ANY MIRACLE songs a complete universe of English Romanticism in the tradition of Percy and Mary Shelley, Hollywood Classic Creature Horror, H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos and nightmare creatures from the Greek myths.
In ANY MIRACLE the three Forthcoming Fire members reunite after 30 years in the constellation in which they released their first songs and albums as musicians in the early 90s and toured Europe: keyboardist and singer Burn, who was also part of the Neue Deutsche Härte formation Weissglut (Sony Music), guitarist Jens Weimar and bassist G. Dorn.
"Gothic Culture has fans all over the world, its language is universal. Every society has its ghost stories, old and new. There is a renaissance of gothic horror right now in novels, TV series and cinema like we haven't seen before," says singer Burn. "Personally, I find the greatest freedom of expression in darkness. John Carpenter is right when he says, 'The Monsters are us.' There's a monster waiting for you in every one of our songs. The worst of all, though, is yourself."
In post-punk, experimentation and boundary crossing have always been explicitly encouraged. ANY MIRACLE explores goth and darkwave in a new way for themselves while drawing from their glory days of the 80s and 90s, which the three band members experienced firsthand.
