"Brujeria" by blxckflamingo

"Brujeria" by  blxckflamingo  As soon as I read about new darkwave projects, I just have to listen to them, and I'm usually not disappointed.  This is also the case with blxckflamingo from New Jersey, who have released a 3-track EP called "Attic Tracks", on which "Brujeria" stands out once again.  The song is a dark, poetic reflection on passion, devotion, and the destructive aspects of desire and pain.  A mystical, almost occult atmosphere is created with pictorial descriptions such as "witches’ ball" and "mystical rain" , which keeps you caught between attraction and self-destruction. blxckflamingo succeeds with "Brujeria" in creating a powerful expression of inner chaos and longing.  Musically, you can look forward to excellent cold darkwave that indulges in a post-punk renaissance.

Hope and Despair: “Roulette” by The Fictionals

“Roulette” by The Fictionals

The path of the Roulette ball is uncertain, but with the band The Fictionals at the helm, we are all winners. The sun burns relentlessly these days, but the elegant and cool post-punk sound of the New York formation gives us hope. And we are not disappointed. This is their third single, and they maintain the high standard of their previous releases. 
The Fictionals
They call their latest work “Roulette,” and it is not chance that makes it so outstanding. It is the ingredients in the form of the musicians. They know exactly what it takes to make us happy for more than just a "Single-Long" moment. 
The song unfolds dark, post-punk-soaked visions of a nocturnal city that offers no refuge from the toil of the working week. Thumping rhythms and melancholic guitar sounds weave a soundscape that echoes through the streets. Driving choruses flicker like glimmers of hope in the “roulette” of fate, a longed-for escape from aimless existence, a dance on the narrow edge between despair and hope. 
No matter how often they let the ball roll, The Fictionals are on a promising path and leave nothing to chance. With “Roulette,” they have once again proven what they are capable of.
