Die Kur release a brand new single entitled "Beneath the Waves"
The song lyrics refers to the submarine disaster of the Kursk K-141 in 2000.
"[...] I was watching a documentary on the Kursk K-141 disaster and alongside all the tragedy, another darker situation took my attention:
during the conference explaining the situation, with 23 of these sailors still alive under the sea, the mother of one of the sailor asked why nothing was
done to try to rescue the sailors and why there were no words of hope or compassion but instead of an answer she received an injection of
sedatives, live on the screen.
This is something shocking and in parallel I can see it happening all the time with all governments negating people the right to know facts, even
using substances to control and calm down situations that aren't favourable.
The song is about the moment when someone asks a word of hope and instead he/she is put down, symbol of how governments are acting in
