Post-punk with classic goth vibes. Drum machines and synths, not a rock sound.
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.
Cold wave post-punk.
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.
True post-punk, classic sound.
It’s post-punk, but feels like coldwave indie, very surprisingly coming from Canada.
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.
Another amazing goth record. Fantastically captured mood, classic sound, mix of post-punk and synths, with an occasional futurepop flair.
Classic post-punk goth sound and vibes.
I went to see a science lecture and there was a band playing before, that was Dear Omens. It’s hard to describe the experience when a bunch of science nerds are waiting for a speech about brain functions and what they get is a stage lit with candles, faces painted white, and loud full-on goth rock in their faces.
Besides being extremely surprising, it was also an amazing performance and absolutely impressive music. Listening to the record brings back the memories and it’s a great album, even if a short one. I’m happy that I can remember Fay Ruza’s absolutely commanding stage presence while listening to the songs, that definitely gives the experience an extra edge.
