Bloodbeat #127 feat. PATRIARCHY (US)

Bloodbeat ist der Beat der Jahre ´78-´84, darüber hinaus und in die Jetzt-Zeit. Wir begeben uns auf eine (Party-)Reise von den ersten Versuchen auszubrechen im Punk Rock bis zur Befreiung im Post-Punk/New Wave. Doch die These gilt, dass damit noch lange nicht Schluss war/ist. Bloodbeat folgt dem weiten Experimentierfeld des Post-Punk bis ins Jahr 2023.

Das Bloodbeat-Team präsentiert diesmal:

PATRIARCHY explores themes of sex, power, subversion & death, with what appears to be an intense interest in Ancient Greek Mythology & 80’s slasher films, a heavy dose of Mulholland Drive, and a sound that is equal parts ABBA and NIN.

Led by the always provocative and Un-PC Actually Huizenga, PATRIARCHY is now a sexy vampiric three piece including The Drummer & The Guitarist. They sprung out of the cemetery deep with their devastating performance at Substance Festival of last year. They now gear up for her next album release, „The Unself,“ written and recorded during the pandemic, dealing with issues of projected love and dangerous fantasies, produced by Matia Simovich (of Inhalt) and mixed by John Fryer (of This Mortal Coil).

Two singles from the upcoming album have been released- „Lock Jaw“ and „Suffer“ with remixes by Kris Baha, Zanias and Kontravoid as well as NSFW videos directed, produced and edited by Actually Huizenga.

„…it’s a goth project in the best way possible—the band has a death metal logo, blood always seems to be flung around, and the lyrics are not for the faint of heart.“
[ L’Officiel ]

„part Bebe Buell, and Nancy Spungen, with a generous portion Bruce Dickinson in aesthetic—altogether a grotesque amalgam of all the sexual energy from punk, goth, and heavy metal.“
[ Post Punk ]
