Artists: PRINCESS UGLY
Who: Two misfits – J. Christopher-Rome and Christopher Moncrieffe – from Portland, OR
who are influenced by goth, post-punk, darkwave and adjacent genres. So far the tandem released two albums, The Past, One Second At A Time and It Should Be Clear By Now. Listen here.
New EP: BRING THE AXES
TUTV: Princess Ugly are ready to take on a new year.
They are armed with axes and a new 6-track EP.
The world turned into a violent and intolerant mess the pas few years.
Bring The Axes is a fitting soundtrack for the upsetting times we have to
endure.
“The darkest night fills our hearts with fire
We crossed the line where no fate is tied
Drag it off and fall from the bones
Obscure procession into the unknown.”
Sonically, the repetitious resonance displays vintage goth and dark-synth-waves.
There’s an irresistible and seductive catchiness to all the tracks, but beware, a
doom and gloom menace dominates all the way.
Scary, whispering vocals breathe down your neck, causing a spine-chilling sensation
and non-stop electro thunderclaps keep on hitting your head. Despite of it all you’ll find yourself dancing in the dark hiding from outside threats. The stroboscope does its dazzling work in the Princess Ugly batcave while shadowy tunes circle around.
