“From The Cold" turns out to be intense song-craft with tendencies toward piano ballad and pathos, influenced by Radiohead and queer pop. The best is saved for last: “Dinosaur Shape” with its vocoder doesn´t need to shy away from comparison with the likes of Bon Iver."
(Sebastian Fasthuber, FALTER)
Epic
Piano Pop with an emotional edge.
Patrick loves to challenge boundaries in his uncompromising lyrics, mapping out a path throughout the course of the album from human downfalls to ecstatic euphoria, telling of co-dependency and isolation, queer love and sex, forces of nature, visions of the future, of shape-shifting and magical creatures.
“… THE MUSIC VIDEO TO GRATEFUL WAS SHOT ENTIRELY ON SUPER 8 FILM AND DISTINGUISHES ITSELF THROUGH A UNIQUE AESTHETIC. THE SKILLED GAZE OF FILMMAKER PHILIPP FLEISCHMANN BECOMES APPARENT….”

On his debut album "From The Cold", Patrick Lammer explores uncharted territory, both in sound and content, telling stories about fears and hopes in an era steeped in uncertainty. In an array of emotional songs, he is looking for the extreme: fragile, stripped-down ballads are found alongside epic synthie beats; deconstructed field recordings and experimental, electronic soundscapes are followed by passionate piano instrumentals that evoke his past as a classically trained pianist.
“This singer is stirring up Vienna´s music scene.”
