Out today - WINGTIPS - Exposure Therapy (Artoffact Records) @wingtipschicago @artoffact_records . . . “Darkwave is experiencing an incredible renaissance right now... Another rising act in the genre is Chicago's Wingtips, the devastating twosome of Vincent Segretario and Hannah Avalon." —Revolver . . . “Immensely talented... A hybrid of post-punk and dark synth pop .” —Post-Punk . . . “Goth-pop duo Wingtips... captures the irresistible disintegration and woozy depths of the Cure's late-80s sound." —Chicago Reader . . . “Staking out a piece of The Cure’s swooningly romantic territory..." —Big Takeover . . . “Impeccable, anthemic synth-pop to soothe your neurotic soul." —Pure Grain Audio . . . #wingtips #darkwave #postpunk #synthpop #chicago #thecure #thechainworld
Out today: Coarse - Cut and Preserved (6131 Records) @coarseisaband @6131records . . . “Coarse is the new-ish collaborative project of hardcore musicians Ryan Knowles and Brandon Gallagher, and their upcoming EP 'Cut and Preserved' sees them going in more ambitious, experimental directions than ever before without losing their sense of pure heaviness. It’s a killer record all around and it’s far from your average 'remix EP.'" —BrooklynVegan . . . “Self-described 'feral rock' duo Coarse specializes in a particularly corrosive brand of chaotic hardcore. Think Botch, Converge, Cult Leader, Candy, et al. Their forthcoming EP sees the group roaming down new abrasive avenues, however, exploring the sounds of industrial metal, hip-hop and more." —Revolver . . . "The band’s upcoming new EP, 'Cut and Preserved' – a precursor to a full-length the band has planned for next year on 6131 Records – adds a heavy industrial influence to the mix, as if Coalesce and Author & Punisher fell into a vat of mutating slime, and were disposed of in the sewers of Manhattan to rot for a decade or more." —Kerrang! . . . #coarse #streetsects #thearmed #hardcore #industrial #remix #thechainworld

The new single from this jittery L.A. no-wave band is a valentine to the sci-fi classic ‘Altered States,’ but it may very well be pop music from some unknown planet you might be scared to visit. Check out the new video directed by Eric Livingston @firstchurchofthevoid over at @altpress. #prissywhip #alternativepress #thechainworld #musicpr #videopremiere #ericlivingstson #firstchurchofthevoid

@cloudratgrind have unveiled new song "Seven Heads" (from upcoming new album "Pollinator") via @decibelmagazine . . . “Seven Heads" rips through speakers with a mix of death metal and grindcore, while haunting synths swell deep underneath. Cloud Rat guitarist Rorik Brooks describes the song as "somewhere between Coffins, Morbid Angel, Discordance Axis, and Deftones," also acknowledging sci-fi masters Ray Bradbury and David Cronenberg as lyrical inspirations. Like many of Pollinator's songs, "Seven Heads" addresses the potential lethality of the internet. “Pollinator" comes out Sept 13th on @artoffact_records . . . Catch Cloud Rat live with labelmates Kælan Mikla and more! #cloudrat #grindcore #punk #deathmetal #blackmetal #thechainworld
Crank new @wingtipschicago track "Here and Now" via @bigtakeovermag now! . . . “Chicago-based darkwave duo Wingtips are taking flight with a sound that recalls the beginnings of 1980s synth/electro-pop noir... Staking out a piece of The Cure’s swooningly romantic territory, Wingtips saturate 'Here and Now' with washes of diffusive synths, sparkling electro-notes, softly reverberating guitar chime, and echoed drum beats." . . . Debut album "Exposure Therapy" comes out Aug 23rd on @artoffact_records . . . #wingtips #chicago #postpunk #darkwave #synthpop #thecure #thechainworld
Out today on @learningcurverecords — Simultaneity Now, the fifth full-length album by @multicultband . . . “Pushing the noise rock framework in new directions..." —Post-Trash . . . “Noise rock, as a genre, provides a home for a cadre of secretly virtuoso musicians. The focus isn’t on shredding and pyrotechnic playing as much as maneuvering through strange time signatures and a thorough command of instrumental sounds and textures... This is certainly the case with Baltimore-based trio Multicult. The trio bring a wealth of talent and experience to bear on their fifth full-length, 'Simultaneity Now.’" —Burning Ambulance . . . “With the new 'Simultaneity Now,' Multicult provide yet another reason to love Baltimore." —Scene Point Blank . . . “‘Simultaneity Now’ extends the trio’s streak of crafting the finest updates on the rattling noise-rock Touch & Go and Amphetamine Reptile used to put out, spiked with the rhythmic pummel of 1980s industrial throb..." —Baltimore Fishbowl . . . #multicult #noiserock #baltimore #amphetaminereptile #amrep #touchandgorecords #thechainworld
Out today: Jonny Couch’s debut full-length album “Mystery Man” . . . “Soulful, synth-laced pop." —New Noise . . . “Couch’s songs are gems... from infectious rockers to contemplative ballads." —Big Takeover . . . “Charming 80s aesthetic and catchy melodies." —Ghettoblaster . . . “Roxy Music meets 'No Jacket Required'-era Phil Collins... underpinned by an earnest sense of late night loneliness and longing." —Joy of Violent Movement . . . #jonnycouch #powerpop #newwave #80s #neonoir #roxymusic #philcollins #thechainworld 📸 @kelsayyysays

@kaelanmikla announces first-ever US tour, kicking off Aug 31; includes Pasadena Daydream Festival (w/ The Cure, Pixies, Deftones), Cold Waves Festival, Cloud Rat dates, and more! See the tourdates and watch the new live video for the band's "Hvernig kemst ég upp?" track, now via @revolvermag — “2018 was a whirlwind for Iceland's chilliest post-punk export Kælan Mikla... Still humming off the jolt of that buzz, the trio have now offered up a peek into the hazy, neon-noir atmosphere of their stage show with the release of a live video... The new live video may be a good look at Kælan Mikla's show, but nothing can replace the real thing, of course, so the visual functions secondarily as a preview of the band's first-ever US tour." #kaelanmikla #iceland #postpunk #thecure #pixies #deftones #thechainworld
Listen to Jonny Couch’s debut full-length album "Mystery Man" in full right now via Big Takeover Magazine! “Couch’s songs are gems... from infectious rockers to contemplative ballads.

Couch makes soulful, synth-driven anthems for the lovelorn... NYC, witness it live tonight 8/1 at Berlin (25 Ave A) at the official "Mystery Man" release show! @damagedsofamusic @bigtakeovermag #jonnycouch #powerpop #newwave #newromantic #thecars #cheaptrick #duranduran #thechainworld 📸 @kelsayyysays
