- Info

Label: Artoffact Records
Catalog Number: AOF413
Release Date: 2023-10-06
When the Soul Sleeps is a standout release from Russian coldwave trio Ploho, channeling Eastern Bloc post-punk aesthetics into icy, modern form. Minimal drum machines, reverb-drenched guitar, and deadpan Russian vocals evoke isolation and yearning, but never feel lifeless—there’s movement under the surface.
The album explores themes of loss, fading hope, and quiet resistance, wrapped in vintage tones and Soviet-era melancholy. For fans of Motorama, Molchat Doma, and the more restrained end of the darkwave spectrum, When the Soul Sleeps hits with bleak beauty.
