GAIA, BETHMOORA, DRUKNER, LUCID GRAVE - REFUSE TO SURRENDER

Refuse to Surrender (A tribute to Portishead) is a musical fusion of darkness and beauty, where four Danish doom bands – GAIA, Lucid Grave, Bethmoora and Drukner – reinterpret Portishead’s melancholic classics.

‍

The tones of ‘Glory Box’, ‘Wandering Star’, ‘All Mine’ and ‘Machine Gun’ weave together in heavy, emotional soundscapes that draw the listener deep into a universe of existential pain and raw beauty. Through the deep modulations of the doom genre, Portishead’s intense lyrics gain new life, creating space for deep introspection, where the echoes of isolation meet the faint glow of hope.

‍

This deeply resonant project, born from the desire to support SIND (the Danish Association for Mental Health) and their work with young people with mental illness, unites the hidden darkness with the fragility of the human soul and results in a moving, unforgettable musical experience.
