Future Palace
Future Palace is a German post-hardcore band founded in 2018, hailing from Berlin. The band was formed at the end of 2018 by vocalist Maria Lessing, guitarist Manuel Kohlert, and drummer Johannes Frenzel. The latter had years of experience in bands like Redcraving, Whoeverthouart, and 8BCC. They met Maria Lessing when she provided a feature for their former band. With the idea of forming a new band later, the three created a WhatsApp group named "Future Palace," which eventually became the band's name.
On March 26, 2019, the band released their debut single "Maybe" that was made in collaboration with Christoph Wieczorek (Annisokay/Sawdust Recordings). The corresponding music video was published on Future Palace's YouTube channel on April 11, 2019. The sophomore single, "Anomaly," followed on May 31, 2019. The band played their first concerts on August 29 and 30, 2019, in Berlin and Hamburg.
On March 6, 2020, Future Palace signed with Arising Empire. On the same day, their third single "Illusionist," featuring Tobias Rische of Alazka, was released along with a music video.
With the release of their single "Ghost Capter" on July 17, 2020, the band announced their debut album "Escape," which was released on September 18, 2020. The album tells the story of how all people are naturally social beings. If people feel lost or lonely, those they trust will support them. They seek sympathy and understanding from their loved ones, feeling needed in their embrace, even during the most difficult times.
Additionally, at the beginning of 2021, the band announced a headline tour throughout Germany, which was later canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
On November 5, 2021, the band released their single "Paradise" along with a music video. The single "Heads Up" was released on December 16, 2021. It focused on the fight against depression, which arose above all in the hopeless impression of the pandemic and thus creates a profound relevance.
In April 2022, the band embarked on their first headlining tour, titled the "Take Me to Paradise" tour together with Annisokay.
The album "Run" was released on June 10, 2022. It talks about the aftermath of a toxic relationship and shows in a visually stunning and vulnerable way that the struggle with one's own salvation is only the beginning, even after escaping from a dramatic situation. Traces of post-hardcore, electronica, and growling vocals can also be heard.
On April 20, 2023, Future Palace released their single "Malphas."
Their blend of post-hardcore and alternative rock with lyrics written by vocalist Maria Lessing, delve into personal experiences, particularly depression, inner conflicts, and toxic relationships. It gives an insight into their hopes, their tomorrow and future - it is a diary of omnipresent vulnerability and the search for a remedy.
