WL//WH Weekly Post-Punk / Darkwave / Dark Synth Tips

• International electronic pop trio Adam Collier (BlakLight, Beautiful Crisis), Marie Williamson (Agency-V, Numana State & AfterDark) & Brian Belknap (BlakLight, Mind Machine), AKA SilverScene “Heart” debut single
  

Debuting a new international electronic pop trio, with long-time members of the Synth-pop scene and above all quite active in recent years, such as Californian artists Adam Collier and Brian Belknap, among others together in BlakLight, to which has been added the English singer-songwriter Marie Williamson, with a classic stirring and melancholic, vaguely dark, song that infuses intoxicating emotional layers of love and adoration to wind twinkling icy bright synth melodies, warm orchestral sweeps, and heart-skipping beats around an array of evocative male/female vocal layerings, casting comfort, insight, and support through life’s harder times.

• Georgia‘s gothic punk /post-punk solo project TATIL 22 “ERIHA” single
  

Doomer style gloomy and epic Georgian Post-punk sung in the Kartvelian language, bounces off through urgent, rushing ripples of obsessively despairing glistening guitar lines, steady perky drum beats, wistful flashing synth swells, and bleak rumbling basslines to provide intense solemn baritone vocals with comfort as relentless cold eternal sadness take hold.

• Columbus, Ohio post-punk /gothic rock solo project Graal “Under My Thumb” (The Rolling Stones Cover)
  

A faster, more anxious, and squeakier, absolutely dragging, reinterpretation from Ohio’s Graal of the 1966 controversial RS anthem, through churning layers of choppy bursting guitar distortion, anxious wiry swirling synth melodies, rumbling basslines and heavy trotting beats, to fuel equal sassy swaggering vocal intensity, arousing strains of a chaotic sexual power struggle as opposed to the original sneaky, cavalier one.
