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

• Cologne, Germany Post-Punk / Dark Wave solo project Hinfort “Numb Inside” single
  

Cologne darkwaver returns with a vibrant, electrifying new single built on a driving clattering spine of relentless chunky bass lines and thumping drum machines, dancing urgently on the edge of light and shadows, shrouded with a swirling hazy blanket of bright forlorn synths, laced with wobbling, rattling guitars, atop cold, restless baritone vocals, shifting to warm loving devotion, while exploring a numb feeling inside.

• US/Australia goth /synth /darkwave collaboration KNOWNPLEASURES & Chlorine Gargoyle “Stinger” single
  

Intercontinental darkwave collaboration’s new single combines atmospheric, desolate, piercing guitar lines and flickering synths with relentless, buzzing low ends and pounding drum machines to create a hopelessly throbbing and achingly vibrant haze around haunted, ghostlike male vocals that agonise before vanishing beneath a sickening weight of painful emotions.

• North Carolina goth rock /post-punk //darkwave band Saiph “Until Tomorrow” single
  

Lately shifting from a soloist to a full five-piece band, “Until Tomorrow” delivers a fresh and urgent brand of romantic darkwave to dance to in the heart of haunting obscure nights, through a seductive, visceral interweaving of wandering, wistful crystalline guitar arpeggios and desolately shivering, liquid synth blankets, around contemplative baritones layered with feint ethereal cries, escaping from the sadness and anxiety of life by living in the present.
