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 reflects Anika’s desire to create a space where people can unite and feel free to express themselves amidst the chaos of the world. With influences ranging from 90s grunge and Courtney Love to Patti Smith and Genesis P-Orridge, the album is driven by a rebellious spirit. Tracks like “One Way Ticket” critique the rise of fascism, while “Hearsay” takes on the divisiveness of fake news, revealing Anika’s determination to confront the complexities of our current moment. The album’s raw, emotional power is matched by its physicality. Anika’s goal is to take listeners out of their heads and back into their bodies, offering a release through the music and live performances. This is a space to reclaim the connection between mind and body—something she feels is increasingly lost in today’s world. Her desire to create that energy on stage is reflected in Abyss’s dense, pounding rhythms, which build on the energy of 90s alt-rock.

Abyss also delves into the intense tensions between the le” 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.”
