Tlen

Tlen is a new Sofia-based band whose sound feels like it comes from “the end of the endless” – for those who miss something unnamed. Their music walks the fine line between tenderness and sting, crafting a dark cinematography where the listener becomes a midnight passenger in the last taxi, crossing hushed city streets. In the rearview mirror, faces flicker — some tasting the bittersweet, some left behind for good, others having lost faith in the morning. These intimate soundscapes carry melancholy not as a burden but as a source of creativity, pushing emotions to a boiling point and (hopefully) towards release. Tlen’s live shows are immersive journeys, blending atmospheric arrangements with sharp lyrical imagery. Their sound can’t be boxed in one genre — it’s indie, post-punk, alternative, and cinematic rock, all channeled through raw emotion.
