Recently I wrote “this is cold wave“. So this is one as well. And it’s not the post-punk kind but dark and industrial. This is a lot more EBM than goth.
Memory keeper. Mostly music and movies, plus some series and video games. Obscure darkness meets pop culture glow.

Darkwave post-punk. The track King is such a hook.
Darkwave, dance music for goths.
Cold wave post-punk.
Dark wave goth with all the right notes, classic sound.
This is cold wave.
I don’t know that the fact they don’t (can’t?) properly play their instruments (which includes voice) in most songs is form over substance, an aesthetic choice, or just shows that in this genre it’s not the musical prowess that matters. In any case, it gives the album a noisy bedroom DYI feel.
For goth rock, there’s this triangulation of post-punk to glam-velvet to rocker-dudes, and I could paint the amoeba visualization for all albums based on their style in this triangle. This one’s the least post-punk, and about equal rock-and-roll and glam. This is not goth to be sad about but one to dance to and drink deep crimson wine from large brass chalices by.
True post-punk, classic sound.
Very cute game. It’s such a beautiful representation of a child’s summer vacation and the adventures that happen there. When she sums up her day at the end, that’s the cutest thing ever.
It’s a masterclass game as well. I don’t usually choose hard modes if I get away with something that’s a comfortable challenge, and this was such a sweet spot: never needed a walkthrough but sometimes I felt successful when solving a puzzle or doing a platforming bit. It’s so rewarding to play this game.
So unexpected, so amazing. Fantastic game and game design. It’s an experience that everyone should see, like movie classics.
