“You Two So Alike”
Second Still
I love Coldwave/Post Punk, and Second Still delivers everything that makes the genre so wonderful. An almost Gothic sense of melody, beautiful vocals with wonderful yelps that add to the intensity, and a driving beat; these are the wonderful qualities of this great LA-based trio.
The cathartic, sentimental and emotionally sensitive lyrics are juxtaposed by an indifferent, unflinching, steady drum machine beats, making these unrelenting post-punk tracks feel anthemic.
This description is so apt. This band has a lot of mystery. What a wonderful band. There is some Alley Cats sound to them, but they definitely have a sound of their own.
