Schrödinger – Bloody Eyes

A lot of the music I enjoy could be considered by some to be unconventional (yes, I’m strange even by goth standards). Well, how about a little gothic-surfer music? Schrödinger dropped this track from their debut album “Last Days on Earth” appropriately released on Halloween in this year of our lord, 2020. For many of us, the album title is unfortunately more than a little relevant. Thankfully though, Schrödinger graciously shared this positively-catchy bit of beach-blanket-bingo earworm-candy. Post-punk Mexican … Continue reading Schrödinger – Bloody Eyes

Belgrado – Jeszcze Raz (Again)

Following along with my last post we have Belgrado now, another non-English brooding modern post-punk band, although Spanish this time with lyrics sung by a perhaps undeniably gorgeous Polish lead singer and based out of Barcelona, Spain.

This particular cut taken from their second album Demonstration correspondingly affirms their talent for dark emotion-laden melodies and interesting, albeit at times, mournful lyric choices. “39 By Design” was written in remembrance of the 39 members of the Heaven’s Gate cult (“religious group” according to Wikipedia) that were supposed to have … Continue reading Drab Majesty – 39 By Design

Jonathan Bree – You’re So Cool [2018]

As you may have already noticed, posts will vary from riotous punk at times to synth-pop on occasion, yet mostly frequent the dark and fervent. In this case, it is a brooding tune of gothic chamber music from Jonathan Bree, sometimes playfully described as “dark Disney”. This, his biggest … Continue reading Jonathan Bree – You’re So Cool [2018]
