MONSTER DISC !!!

as it says in the song "Fire Walk" the five guys from ANNI OKAY from Halle / Saale by the brand new album "The Lucid Dream [it]" and this confident declaration of war accurately describes what this conceptual perfectly sophisticated and highly anticipated by many first longplayer, externally and content mediated and ultimately holds ...

ANNI OKAY are back and nobody will be able to them and revoke their "Crazy Monster" disc "The Lucid Dream [he]"!

This begins with a visually captivating artwork of the South African artist Chris Valentine, showing the dreamer who falls from a decaying world that has been turned upside down - exactly what ANNI OKAY will succeed musically with this full length debut:
"Get out of the same old, on to the top!" - AIO want internationally (he) sound and work around the world reach for the stars and this is set no limits.

This self-confident claim underpinned already the pre-video single "Sky" most impressive, but also in its multi-faceted totality is "The Lucid Dream [he]" an album made, introducing the dawn of new production spheres German "scene bands" and the Arrangement will impress forth across national borders!

Hardly has the cover the first star retracted loose, the charming five already ringing with the epic opener "The Last Round" the next compelling attack and sends the listener from now on a journey through eleven passionate songs that horror stories of monsters, fear, grief and fear - but also of hope, courage, love, and thus the beauty of life to tell.

"Who am I" depicts the latter in goosebumps style and is the album untypical, truly brilliant pop gem that so enchanted, one that you can immediately press again to repeat and one more time want to enjoy a short break before the merciless genre mix of ANNI OKAY storm like the brutality of hardcore, the power and perfection of metal and the groove of the Rocks a blowing away again.
But in an unusual electro / synth sounds and catchy pop melodies, there is no shortage on "The Lucid Dream [he]" Of course, AIO guitarist Christoph Wieczorek (Sawdust Recordings) is but since then responsible for the production and with its unique Clean voice anyway the unmistakable unique selling point of the band.

As a reputable Co-producer also Kyle Hoffer and Alyosha victory functioned (Eskimo Callboy, The Haverbrook Disaster) and the mastering was no less a figure than Joey Sturgis (Asking Alexandria, Emmure, Attack! Attack !, The Devil Wears Prada) responsible.

"Who am I to force my destiny ... I am fine, I wait patiently"

A heart and souls ergeifende, paradoxical in itself a message that you "should not force anything and ultimately you'll be fine" sometimes according to a statement by Anni OKAY.
But by waiting the guys were on "The Lucid Dream [he]" but then finally had enough and it was truly worth it to help their own luck on the jumps, because "good" is even in this exceptionally high-quality disc not anywhere near good enough - this record is a real coup !!!
