The band comments: “The absence of skin on skin and the catastrophic consequences when that hunger turns into desperation. It is about the duality of searching for purpose and losing all in the process. Staring long and hard into the void and realizing the futility of struggle. Sult is a statement on desire, grief and the pure human necessity to scream back at an empty existence. It is a step onto the road of grim realism paved by mavericks such as Edward Munch, Carl Th. Dreyer and Stig Sæterbakken. Offering no solutions or postmodern irony, Sult simply reaches out. Existentialism and force collide. Life plods on, until it doesn’t.”

The last couple of years, Kollapse have been focusing on writing unembellished, intensely personal and uncompromising music – with lyrics solely in their mother toungue – they take the plunge into existential crisis, isolation, love and death. Their journey continues inwards, plunging deeper into introversion and raw emotion.
