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

• Lviv, Ukraine dark wave /cold minimalistic synth solo project, Bedroom Talk “Burden of Epoch” from upcoming full-length album “Call me Malespero”
  

One man band from Lyiv unleashes a gloomy and dismal Goth-inflected Darkwave dirge steered by relentless looping and wobbly percussive thuds to insinuate obsessive and overbearing sorrow stressed by pain-filled jagged, biting guitar riffs and eerie synth strains, to overwhelm lost haunted vocal suffering with relentless drifts of alienation and dread.

• New York-based dark electronic /occult synth-punk artist (Fka Ghotha from the collective project Unboned), RHOYA “Plastic perfection”
  

Often active on Soundcloud, the latest lo-fi resonant dancing slab of occult Synth-punk from New York‘s artist resonates with me more than ever, propelled by retro-charged, hard-hitting, stomping rhythmic patterns and mechanical throbbing bassline loops, topped by neurotic bright synth swirls, whilst urgent restless vocals, release squeals of angst and pain into a burden of status quo, “Plastic Perfection.” Truly mesmerizing vocalizations, to play it loud!!!

• Anglo–Argentinian, Europa-based New wave /Synthpop /Post-Punk duo Night Hexe “Shapes in the Dark” single off their upcoming debut album.
  

Dark, alluring, frenzied, and why not, absolutely catchy new single for the dynamic Anglo–Argentinian Post-punk duo with a driving Darkwave edge to keep moods sounding menacing, trotting around dry steady beats, and urgent skipping crisp bassline loops, stabbed by abrasive guitar riffing and squealing wiry whines around aloof vocal confessions, releasing secret nocturnal fantasies into a kinky teem of thrills and desire.
