Post-Punk Monk
The intro unleashed the drum machine and the organ-like synths for a subtle and low key handful of bars until the point where the guitars and Ms. Plante plunged deep into the dark, swirling waters of the song. Her vocal an impressive lower register until the pulsating synthesizers heralded the full-bodied roar of her powerful delivery.

about
track from our upcoming album, "songs about dying," this track is about resilience, and that beauty, once created, can never truly be destroyed. its continued existence gives me hope for my own.
lyrics
I took that picture book from deep in the drawer
to view you in your finer days
then felt my heart and hope begin to swell
a realization of the waters come to take your place
venice let go…though you know the water takes you down
venice let go
though your beauty fades
there is no one here that can wear your crown
and when the masses fade away
you fear they only came so they could say your name
and it feels like no one cared at all
but in this darkest moment
I hear your call
you’ve taken your sweet time
you’re just settling like finest wine
no, you don’t have to live in fearfulness again!
venice let go…though you know the force will take you down
venice let go
and though your beauty fades
there is no one here to wear your
crown – it’s a thing of intricate gold
catching light beneath the folds
of velvet I can see
and the muse in the painting
oh – she is laughing at me
she says that sand castles disappear
but don’t believe what she says
you are still enough for today
now my sweet venice, I am sinking too!
(like my sister)
like Pompeii…from Vesuvius
i will rise again
like Pompeii, up from Vesuvius
we will rise again
like Pompeii, up from Vesuvius
oh I believe we’ll be found again
like Pompeii, up from Vesuvius
I believe we’ll be found again
to view you in your finer days
then felt my heart and hope begin to swell
a realization of the waters come to take your place
venice let go…though you know the water takes you down
venice let go
though your beauty fades
there is no one here that can wear your crown
and when the masses fade away
you fear they only came so they could say your name
and it feels like no one cared at all
but in this darkest moment
I hear your call
you’ve taken your sweet time
you’re just settling like finest wine
no, you don’t have to live in fearfulness again!
venice let go…though you know the force will take you down
venice let go
and though your beauty fades
there is no one here to wear your
crown – it’s a thing of intricate gold
catching light beneath the folds
of velvet I can see
and the muse in the painting
oh – she is laughing at me
she says that sand castles disappear
but don’t believe what she says
you are still enough for today
now my sweet venice, I am sinking too!
(like my sister)
like Pompeii…from Vesuvius
i will rise again
like Pompeii, up from Vesuvius
we will rise again
like Pompeii, up from Vesuvius
oh I believe we’ll be found again
like Pompeii, up from Vesuvius
I believe we’ll be found again

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 29 fans who also own “venice”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.

A stunner from L.A. musician Britt Warner—stark and shadowy songs anchored in spare arrangements and Warner’s ghostly voice.

The Compartmentalization of Decay
by Kira McSpiceEerie, gothy, and ominous, the new LP from Kira McSpice is spookily engaging.

As the name implies, there’s something wonderfully spooky about this Philly band—shoegaze with a haunting undercurrent.

Two Worlds Collide
by October Burns Blacksupported by 27 fans who also own “venice”
First full lenght album by the band, preceded by the two excellent EP's 'Fault Line' and 'Reflections'. In line with their now characteristic sound and influences, October Burns Black deliver a great collection of tracks whose spell is impossible to resist. Classy and classic gothic rock at it's best.
