‘Thorn Armor’ marks the debut single of Berlin-based musician Maximilan Seifert, known artistically as Spell Trouble.

Originating from the East German metal scene of the late 2000s, Maximilan later relocated to Berlin, a hub for electronic music. His sound is a fusion of distorted guitar riffs and rhythmic beats from vintage drum machines. This first single is a striking combination of dark and catchy elements, likened to a black diamond set in a worn-out TR-808.

Spell Trouble’s music creates a moody, nostalgic haven that bridges raw, nostalgic influences with accessible indie vibes. With synth sounds evocative of 70s and 80s new wave bands, ample reverb, and occasionally rapid beats, the artist captivates his audience. Beyond the music, Spell Trouble delves into profound themes, often exploring self-reflection and introspection in his lyrics.
