Twin Tribes – Portal to the Void

Bands often write their own bios on Spotify, so perhaps surprising that Twin Tribes brothers Luis Navarro (Vox/Guitar/Synth) and Joel Niño Jr. (Bass/Synth) have simply written, “Dark melodic sounds, synthesizers, lyrics about the undead, the occult and parallel universes.” Straightforward and direct, especially the part about the occult, as they have at least one video that is made to seem like a kidnapping/snuff film (awesome … Continue reading Twin Tribes – Portal to the Void

Lonely Walk – PGL (Pretty Good Looking)

Another exceptional band from Bordeaux, France, Lonely Walk has been kicking around since releasing a number of EPs to critical acclaim between 2010 and 2014 (VIHS, NGHTMR, and BORE) culminating in their full-album release of TEEN in 2015 containing said track “PGL“. Hypnotic fringe-punk with late-seventies sensibilities might be an apt description for this track portraying the teen-angst of an askance view of someone or … Continue reading Lonely Walk – PGL (Pretty Good Looking)

Mindless Self Indulgence – Shut Me Up (Uncensored)

MSI has been around-the-block, bought the t-shirt, and worn it threadbare since the early days when they released their eponymous debut album back in 1995. They’re funny; it’s a perverse irreverent humor. They’re insanely creative and they’re outrageous. They don’t give a fuck about their critics and they love their fans (as they should). Yet, they’re also … Continue reading Mindless Self Indulgence – Shut Me Up (Uncensored)

The Horrors – Still Life

Sporting a sound at once a mix of shoegaze, post-punk, and goth, The Horrors released this lollipop-swirly emotion-laden piece of neo-psychedelia on their 2011 album Skying. Ethereal and timeless, the song appears to sing one who is pining for a lost love and a reminder from each to the other that they will meet again. “The moment that you want is coming if you give it time.” Though unable to respond, they continue waiting … Continue reading The Horrors – Still Life
