Copenhagen dark wave magician St. Digue releases new album 'Secret Language'

Following blazing two singles and videos, Copenhagen darkwave artist St. Digue releases this third album 'Secret Language', today October 16th 2026 via Over The Under Records. On the new album, St. Digue realizes his artistic ambition across nine immersive and maximalist productions that embrace equal parts darkwave and industrial rock, while exploring a recurring theme of love through dynamics, emotions, sensuality, and self-examination, viewed from a neurodivergent and deeply personal perspective.

‘Secret Language’ is available in two vinyl editions - 120 x Love Swirl Version and 220 x Heartbreak Orange Version - and also a limited cassette tape edition, which can be ordered at St. Digue’s Bandcamp HERE and via Over The Under Records HERE.

St. Digue will host a release event today at Lövendahl in Copenhagen and will subsequently play two Copenhagen shows to celebrate the album, first a release show tomorrow, October 17th, at Loppen - tickets HERE - followed by a November show with doomers Konvent in Den Grå Hål.

St. Digue is the alter ego of Copenhagen singer, songwriter, and producer Kasper Deichmann. St. Digue began as a side project in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, when Deichmann released the two EPs ‘Bloom’ and ‘Wilt’. In 2021, the debut album ‘Everything Hits At Once’ followed, along with the first live performances, and backed by considerable hype, St. Digue played his first international shows in 2022. In 2023, the second album Toxic Kiss was released to widespread acclaim, and the band’s first European tour became a reality. The DEATHWAVE EP followed in 2024, leading to a series of high-profile Danish performances throughout 2024–26, including appearances at Copenhell, A Colossal Weekend, and Metal Magic.

St. Digue’s sound fuses the harshness and coldness of metal and punk with the ethereal and dreamlike qualities of darkwave, creating an unmistakably otherworldly musical expression. Listening to ‘Secret Language’ feels precisely like stepping into that other world: a sonic landscape of sensuality, cold spaces, vast expanses, and inner and outer horizons that stretch across dimensions. Emotions materialize without restraint—melancholy, anger, grief, and aggression, but also fragility, devotion, and love.

Deichmann’s big ambitious artistic vision for ‘Secret Language’ shaped a creative process that lasted two years. He wanted the sonic palette to be markedly different, larger, and more complex; the compositions more timeless, refined, and nuanced; and the overall work had to reflect the artistic maturation Deichmann has undergone as St. Digue.

The album’s overarching theme is something as simple—and as complex—as love. Each song addresses a different aspect of relationships, including communication and dynamics. On a broader level, love itself can be viewed as a kind of otherness, where the internal and secret communication—the Secret Language—is reserved for those involved.
