Anika (Sacred Bones, Invada, Stones Throw, Liquid Milk) a.k.a Annika Henderson is a hybrid artist. The former journalist made a name for herself in the electronic music scene, with her experimental sound collages, confrontational texts and unique way of performing live solo. She interweaves dub, post-punk, and psychedelic with shadows of dnb and a strong emphasis on the voice.
Anika channels her frustration, anger, and confusion with the world into her third album, Abyss. Recorded live to tape at Berlin’s legendary Hansa Studios, the album captures raw energy with minimal overdubs, resulting in a visceral and urgent 10-track journey fueled by intense emotions. The recording process, done in just a few days with a live band, emphasizes immediacy, offering a sound that’s both physical and direct.
Abyss also delves into the intense tensions between the left and right in contemporary society, exploring the complexities of human imperfection and healthy debate. From the thrashing intensity of “Oxygen” to the melancholic “Buttercups,” the album refuses to shy away from uncomfortable truths. Anika boldly confronts her own raw emotions, as exemplified in the candid lyrics of “Walk Away,” where she reflects on discontent with herself and the world.
With Abyss, Anika invites listeners into a space for release, rebellion, and honesty, creating an album that speaks to the turmoil of our times while offering an emotional outlet. As she puts it, “This is a space for you.”
