New striking strokes
23 August 2023
Artist: VINCENT CHRIST
Who: Post-punk musician from London, mixing propulsive
drums, and feeling-first melodies with lyrics that are sardonic,
poetic and oneiric. His live group comprises Vincent, Samuel Jones,
Louis Clark, Connor Humphreys and Matthew Hiscock.
Track: THE NAME OF THE PEARL
Stunning piece of his new, excellent 4-track EP,
titled Cool Judas. Stream/buy it below.
TUTV: Haunting as darkwave hell, from start to finish, circling around
a hypnotizing guitar-synth-riff and mind-banging drum beats, baffles
your puzzled head for a while.
The Name Of The Pearl should be on the soundtrack of a psych-o-tic thriller. Its
blood-curdling post-punk groove can beat the shit out of demons. Its spine-chilling
vocals can scary goths and ghosts. Bauhaus and Sisters of Mercy would sell their souls
to the devil for having a jagged jackhammer like this of their own. Big contender
for best doom and gloom track of 2023. Jesus fucking Christ.
Join Christ to the Spanish desert.
