Water Temple is the debut album of the Berlin-based group Property. Comprised of Marijn Degenaar (NL) and Vivant de Non (AUS). The album wanders through dense end-of-world sensations without keeping away from piercing melodic instrumentation. As hazy as Water Temple can get, Property just as easily trade the murky side of their post-punk sound for analog synthesizers that feel almost celestial. Used to striking effect on Water Temple, the chorus-heavy bassline is interwoven with a strident melody that punctures the rhythm and accents the Neue Deutsche Welle energy that the pair play on at certain moments. Similarly, the vocals on Water Tempel flirt with our cracked times from another angle, rendering a remarkable first transmission from this new duo. Foggy synthesizers fill the cavities of every track, though the driving leads ensure the ambience never overtakes the song-structures across the album.
