Pleasure Loss Desire

“Pleasure Loss Desire” is a deep dive into the abyss of detachment, where pleasure and loss blur into one another in an emotional vortex. In a world that no longer mirrors our ideal selves, detachment becomes not just a reaction, but a survival mechanism, a shield against pain. The abyss turns into a refuge that numbs pain, yet over time it holds us back, threatening to become a suffocating trap.

The album traces a descent into a cold world where clarity and oblivion endlessly alternate in search of balance, oscillating between moments of calm and emotional outbursts, exploring the duality between detachment and alienation. Each track unveils contrasting emotions—desire, suffering, nostalgia, hope, fear— painting a raw portrait of the fragilities of those who live in an era marked by uncertainty and changes.

With “Pleasure Loss Desire” Talk To Her explore new soundscapes compared to their previous record “Love Will Come Again”. The themes once tied to the emotional and passionate sphere give way to alienation, suffering, and fear. The overall sound, as well as the vocals, becomes colder yet more aggressive: while still maintaining a wave influence, particularly evident in certain tracks, the post-punk component is predominant, enriched by strong contaminations of post- and alternative rock from the late ’90s and early 2000s. The album was co-produced and recorded by Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher).
