Cold Transmission Music: Cold New Haunts – Still Dark Sky
Darkwave solo gloom from Bristol, UK. Sometimes singing, sometimes shouting, always synths.
Still Dark Sky’s title track was written just before the UK went into lockdown for the first time – news of the approaching pandemic felt surreal and disturbing, but at the time everyday life remained unchanged. Each song that followed relates to a feeling or issue that has always existed, but which was inevitably amplified by the strange times in which it was born.
I wanted the songs to be cathartic – Still Dark Sky is my most upbeat and uncompromising album yet. You can dance to it. This album is here for anyone needs to process things via loud, heartfelt music.
