After having finished recordings for Desde Infiernos De Flores, Nový Svět immediately began putting down new songs for a follow-up album, which they planned to finalize benefitting from time won by releasing Desde Infiernos De Flores in slices over a period of some months. J. Weber's and Frl. Tost's return to an earlier life in their hometown Vienna brought a new deck of cards into play and those by then already mixed new pieces, rumored to circle around all things dream and sleep and (waking up in) nightmares, suddenly were regarded as "too Spanish," hence "inappropriate" for release. Instead, in late 2007 surprisingly a synth-only album named Todas Las Últimas Cosas ("All the last things"), accompanied by a collection of early demos entitled Todas Las Primeras Cosas, was announced by the acclaimed German label Treue Um Treue/Reue Um Reue. During the following seven years it took Nový Svět to present their next album Mono, tons of unreleased music was made available on various formats. But none of the tracks abandoned in 2007 showed up. Years after their making those recordings were saved from a disintegrating master and compiled for the album DeGenerazione, which when it showed up online caught the attention of Quindi Records, now making the album available for the first time on the intended LP format, presenting a missing link in the Austrians' discography and the final part of a musical triptych, the so-called Spanish Trilogy, begun with Fin.Finito.Infinito back in Vienna, where it now would also find an end. Although noisy and rhythmic in parts, DeGenerazione closes the passage of Nový Svět's exile on an overall introspective note. It stands as a document of a band at the point of implosion, another dark hole -- in a story full of them - illuminated and evidence that J. Weber's Spanish did not improve a bit. Not even living there. A triumph of the will.
