The Fear of Omnipresent Observation: ‘The Crawling Eye’ by The Silence Industry

‘The Crawling Eye’ by The Silence Industry On this very Friday, we whisk you away into the sublime yet shadow-laden realm of Goth Rock, where the heart of Post-Punk beats incessantly. The Silence Industry has recently set a benchmark with ‘The Crawling Eye’ that other artists will find difficult to surpass in the foreseeable future. Endowed with an impressive back catalog,  The Silence Industry approaches a topic of grave seriousness in their latest release.

#OUTNOW: "23" by Lucky Iris

"23" by Lucky Iris

Lucky Iris
Leeds alt-pop duo Lucky Iris have shared new single "23", their first release since the singles "Speak Soon" and "(i'm not good at writing) love songs" which saw radio play across the UK and the USA. Made up of writer-producers Maeve and Jasper, the pair describe their music as a "cotton-candy kick in the face;" their electronic-edged, bittersweet pop songs have been generating excitement throughout West Yorkshire with a live show that's as likely to make you cry as is it is to make you dance.

"23" is the lead single from Lucky Iris' forthcoming EP, "maybe i'm too much", slated for release in July. Written and produced by the pair, mixed by Richard Wilkinson (Adele, Kaiser Chiefs) and mastered by Antony Ryan (Oh Wonder). "23" is the perfect distillation of the duo's impeccable ear for hyper-pop hooks and the musical heartbreak that defines the quintessential age of British indie music.
