Twin Tribes only just started gracing us with their elegant brand ofpost-punk dismality in 2018. However, don’t press play expecting to hear anything like the modern genre. The duo feel much more at home within the ’80s darkwave scene with their blackened, atmospheric sound. Take a listen to their 2019 album, Ceremony, and try to tell us we’re wron...
A marked contrast to Twin Tribes, Strange Bones have put a distinctly modern twist on the genre. This outfit first emerged in 2015 with their debut single “S.O.I.A” and quickly started gaining traction with their thrashy, trap-influenced style. For a good taste of their wildly aggressive energy, take a listen to their 2021 collaboration with Death ...

Creux Lies are notably genre-bending, but there’s no overlooking their signature dark air. The rising outfit seamlessly blend influences from a diverse array of ’80s goth favorites—from Depeche Mode to the Cure—to create a post-punk-rooted sound with indie-pop accents. Active since 2017, they just dropped a new single, “Electrum,” in February.
La Scaltra are a bit of an enigma. They exist somewhere at the crossroads of post-punk and indie rock, delivering ’80s-style melodies with poignant edges. We’re inclined to call it “soft goth” from a sonic standpoint, but there’s no denying their dark energy and aesthetic. Since their debut in 2016, the outfit have released three full-lengths. Be s...
undertheskin is the creative moniker of Polish musician Mariusz Łuniewski. Operating under the project since 2015, Łuniewski puts his own spin on gothic rock, overlaying a traditional post-punk foundation with grunge-y coldwave accents. Following the release of his first full-length, N E G A T I V E, he dropped a new single, “End This Summer,” this...
“Danceable despondence” is the first description that comes to mind when trying to pin down Forever Grey‘s unique, dreamy vibe. Their stylistic leanings toward darkwave is undeniable, although they put forth an air of modernity. Last year, the band released their third studio album since their debut in 2016. Just like the two that preceded it, Depa...
