Born Erased - Birds Drink My Blood (2025) Hi Res

Birds Drink My Blood is the second full-length album from Born Erased, the latest solo venture of Bulgarian musician Angel Simitchiev. Conceived as a meditation on nature’s brutal beauty, the album channels the relentless flow of the natural world, its internal hierarchies, and the unseen forces that shape it. Electronic instrumentation forms the foundation of the record, marking this as the closest Born Erased has come to the final works released under Simitchiev’s now-retired Mytrip alias.

Where I Am The End Of The World (BLWBCK, 2023) relied on the tension between acoustic drums, distorted guitars and ambient electronics, Birds Drink My Blood turns inward, placing its focus firmly on electronic expression. Across six pieces, the music moves between stillness and intensity, occupying a space where fragile motifs and submerged power coexist.

Born Erased once again opens the door to collaboration. French electronic artist Mondkopf contributes his intricate synth work to the track “Unmade,” while Denmark’s Vanity Productions brings his signature melancholy-drenched feedback and noise experiments to the abrasive “Dead Sun Emblem.” These collaborative tracks enhance the album’s contrasts, highlighting moments of interplay between guest interventions and Born Erased’s core sound.

Birds Drink My Blood stands as a vivid reflection of a world where grace and violence remain inseparably entwined, and where collaboration amplifies the tension between beauty and brutality.
