A Distant Dream” — Dutch Coldwavers Desinteresse Share Video for “Falling Faces” Ahead of New Album “A Picture

Dutch coldwave trio Desinteresse release “Falling Faces,” their first single in English from the forthcoming album A Picture, due end of 2026 through Fabrika Records. The song resembles The Cure’s Seventeen Seconds / Faith era, featuring a prominent bassline and flanged guitar with steady drumbeat. Lyrically, it explores separation and distance within a relationship, contrasting imagined comfort against emotional loss. The accompanying video, filmed by Romy Janssen, presents the band in blue stage lighting with grainy imagery evoking early post-punk performance footage. Desinteresse formed in the Netherlands in late 2022 as a partnership between bassist Bart Vranken and vocalist/guitarist/synth player Sem van den Munckhof, with drummer Joppe de Swart joining in 2024. The band uses vintage instruments and analogue recording, having released cassettes through their own DECADENCE label before signing to Fabrika Records.
