Radical Romantics

A sharp, percussive exploration of queer desire and domesticity. Industrial textures meet crystalline synth-pop in a record that feels both dangerous and deeply tender.

It's like The Knife grew up and went to a very dark, very expensive art gallery.

A sharp, calculated exploration of intimacy that balances industrial aggression with crystalline pop beauty.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The aggressive, industrial throb of Even It Out where Reznor's influence creates a sharp, vengeful edge.

The rhythmic, bubbling synth line in Kandy that feels like a direct spiritual successor to The Knife.

The seven minute ambient descent of Bottom of the Ocean that strips away the pop artifice for pure texture.
