Step away from sonic mundanity and into the heartbeat of ‘Rave to the Grave’ by Dr. Void & the Skinjob’s, a observe that redefines darkwave electronica with its fusion of horror punk and darkwave industrial synthpop.
The Glasgow-based Synth, Bass & Drum trio have amassed reverence by their seductively sinister discography, now house to their new EP, ‘Horny, Scary, Doomed & Harmful‘. With synths that drip arcane textures and beats that pulse with a lifetime of their very own, the standout single, ‘Rave to the Grave’ is a Lovecraftian incantation wrapped inside a floor-filler of an earworm.
The hedonic anthem vibrates with kinetic vitality and phasers able to transfixing you to the observe, permitting you to think about Sisters of Mercy stripped of their pretence beneath the affect of Misfits. After only one hit, John Carpenter’s scores won’t ever sound the identical.
The manifesto from the maestros of the macabre is an invite to lose your self within the depths of digital ecstasy. Should you dare to descend, be ready: it is a full-on collision with the spectral heartbeat of darkish synthwave.
Rave to the Grave dropped on Halloween; expertise the euphoria for yourselves by way of YouTube.
