Following last year’s eponymous debut EP, Chilean Post-Punkers Tølva returns as a trio, losing a member along the way, with a brand new single, “Pegasøs”, the first glimpse from their next second work.
The Santiago-based band plays a dark, atmospheric and emotional-ridden Post-Punk that encompasses sonic elements from Shoegaze and Indie Rock with streaks of psychedelic spaciness, built on pounding drums, chilly and penetrating effect-laden riffs, deep and bleak pulsing bass, and plaintive alluring vocalizations, to create a murky and shimmering atmosphere, fraught with lingering sadness and glimmers of vibrant melancholy.
“Pegasøs” triggers squealing frequencies that shroud urgent drum beats, pounding steadily along with a thick ominous meandering bassline, to imbue enveloping, stifling darkness, pierced by a spidery web of glistening guitar melodies, that wander amidst restless spectral ethereality and agonizing flashes of swirling excruciating intensity, echoing wailing pain around emotive taunting vocals, driving thrills and magnetism through an obsessive breathless agony of tormented passion.
