Post-Punk/Alt Rock THE HAPTICS Captures the Berlin Beat With New Single ‘Bodies’

BC’s THE HAPTICS Capturing the Berlin Beat With ‘Bodies’ Unveils the Euphoria and Inner Struggles of Collective Rhythms from Their Newest EP Zero Gravity.

Bodies – These lyrics were inspired by a night that Jin had dancing in Berlin at a party called Herrensauna, at Tresor. Getting swept up in the momentum of a crowd, dancing, is such a powerful thing – we wanted to capture that dynamic, as well as the opposing nature of individuals getting caught up in their head with repetitive thoughts and thinking. That push and pull between being part of a crowd and feeling imprisoned by your body and mind inspired this song. – The Haptics

The Haptics formed in 2022, united by a love for post-punk. Based in Vancouver, their music blends dark post-punk beats with Alternative Rock and Grunge. Their name signifies a focus on sensory experiences. Influenced by Joy Division and The Cure, they modernize the genre. Their live shows captivate with high energy and introspective lyrics. The debut album from late 2022 received acclaim for emotion and instrumentals. The band is involved in visual arts, reflecting their aesthetic. Strong social media presence and collaborations have expanded their fanbase. The Haptics’ willingness to experiment keeps their sound fresh.

Irish post punk/darkwave band MOVMENT release new album “Reinvention”

Irish post punk/darkwave band MOVMENT release new album “Reinvention”

The new album REINVENTION explores life. We are all on a journey. It will end. We live inside our heads. We will soon cease to be as we are. From it there is no escape. The sparkle disappears. Would we just wait for it to happen? Understand it, desire it. Go by what you feel. Become what you can be. Believe in being able to move on. Reinvent you. They still believe.

REINVENTION is an album of unsettling energy with sinister guitar tones, darkwave hypnotic synths, turbulent guitars and bass, gravelly intense vocals. A deeper purpose lives within the walls of the mind. Immerse yourself in a classic goth synth rock treasure trove.

Through their music you meet them face to face.

California postpunk outfit OCTAVIAN WINTERS releases ‘Undertow’!

Today is release day for ‘Undertow’ by San Francisco post-punk outfit OCTAVIAN WINTERS, a dark propulsive single reflecting separation from the world and the darkness that comes out of it – an ominous current capable of pulling someone away from hope. Born into the ghostly isolation of San Francisco in 2022, Octavian Winters draws from darkwave and post-punk traditions, weaving their visceral and ethereal sound into a texture all its own – of stories once told but half-remembered.

Following their debut single ‘Ondine’, ‘Undertow’ previews their debut EP ‘The Line of Curve’, recorded by MARK PISTEL (Meat Beat Manifesto, Consolidated) with production, mixing and mastering by WILLIAM FAITH (The Bellwether Syndicate, Faith and the Muse, Christian Death, The March Violets), whose credits include Jarboe, Clan of Xymox, Bootblacks and Autumn.
