ABSINTHE GREEN, Satan Baby

Absinthe Green began in 2016 as a personal project of songwriter and producer Eirini ‘Absinthe Green’ in Dortmund, Germany. The completion of the songs for the debut album coincided with a move back to Greece in late 2019, where Absinthe was joined by drummer Harry Mason, bassist Villy Pirris, and herself on vocals and guitar, transforming the project into a full-fledged band. Panos Economakis was the latest addition, fulfilling the band’s line-up by assuming guitar duties, completing the ensemble.

It’s that time of the year when their controversial single ‘Satan Baby’ gets it’s annual release in time for the alternative festive calendar!

“Satan Baby is Absinthe Green’s unapologetically dark reimagining of the classic holiday song “Santa Baby,” originally sung by Eartha Kitt in 1953 and later covered by Billie Holiday. While the original was all about seductive Christmas wishes, Absinthe Green’s version drowns in cynicism, exposing the festering hypocrisy behind the season. With scathing sarcasm, a full dose of truth, and a mood soaked in self-destruction, “Satan Baby” rips away the glittery pretence of Christmas and exposes the hollow, soul-crushing cycle of overconsumption and fake goodwill. It’s about the performances people put on, pretending to care while mindlessly ticking off a list of material desires. In the end, it’s painfully clear most don’t give a damn about animals, the planet, or each other. It’s all just a bitter game of ‘who can pretend the hardest” – Eirini ‘Absinthe Green’
