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.
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.
These guys have one more album besides the one they credit together with Adam Tristar. It’s just as good with beautiful and soft darkwave melodies. I find this album emotionally rich and to go under my skin like good goth music does. Beautiful cover art, too.
I wrote previously about Adam Tristar after I first saw him live. I’ve been going back to his music regularly and since then I’ve realized that his first record is probably my favorite, so this is a nod to that. Darkwave electronic goth stuff.
Kinda dark wave, goth vibes but also to dance to. There are some great tunes in here, and some bedroom B-sides. Schall & Rauch is a favorite, it’s definitely one for the goth disco dancefloor.
I’m hesitant and cautious to jump to conclusions, but based on the number of albums being released in the genre and the general product quality of these, is it possible that the goth scene is making a comeback? I’m very excited for some stuff that I hear nowadays and it’s really a treat how often I get to hear good new music.
I saw Adam Tristar on a goth club night headlining after like ten other concerts. It was a duo performing live and they stood out so much from the others, like it would be a professional act after a list of DIY bedroom bands. Well, that’s probably a pretty good approximation of what happened.
The music is all along the goth aesthetics with electronic coldwave synths. Hits close to my heart.
It’s so strange that I haven’t made note of Minuit Machine before considering how much I listen to their records recently. It’s a constant item in my cyberpunk playlists. It’s an amazing blend of electro and goth moods resulting in this beautiful dark wave atmosphere that I just strive in.
