unhappybirthday are from Hamburg, Germany and offer something very nice in their approach to minimalist synth pop/melodic post punk. They tap into a nice cross section of new wave and post punk touchstones for a sizable mix of danceable rhythms. Simple in structure but resonant in scope, the few songs on this record capture the perfect balance of sad and lonely catchiness that makes spending hours in a bedroom listening on repeat seem not only reasonable but necessary. Kraken 12" (originally released on tape in 2013) marks Wave Tension's first release and unhappybirthday's third vinyl after the rereleases of both their albums (originally on tape) by LebensStrasse Records & Kingfisher Bluez.
