Ciklus by ŽEN
ŽEN's fourth album Ciklus comes seven years after their previous studio album and marks an important new chapter in their discography. The album title symbolizes the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one, while also referencing the female menstrual cycle, which represents the cyclical nature of life.
Eva Badanjak (guitar, keyboards, vocals) and Sara Ercegović (drums, synths, vocals) were joined two years ago by Jelena Božić on bass guitar and vocals, replacing Ivona Ivković. This new lineup naturally brings a fresh dynamic to the rhythm section and the construction of tight grooves.
