In Limerence

by Black Doldrums

supported by

Michael Reilly I love Black Doldrums' hypnotic darkwave/shoegaze style – their sound is both old and new, evoking feelings of longing and regret. This excellent release should please all fans interested in gothic, alternative or drone music. Favorite track: Hideaway.

about

'In Limerence' is the second album from London-based trio Black Doldrums. Once described by Uncut as "a fierce combination of post-punk, reverb, drone and melody", their moody gothic post-punk is at its purest and most atmospheric here. Co-produced by Theo Verney (English Teacher, TRAAMS, Egyptian Blue), the record is due for release October 18th 2024 on Fuzz Club. Seeking a cleaner, more direct sound that still captured the whirlwind intensity of their live shows, Black Doldrums' familiar darkwave and shoegaze influences are contrasted here against breezy, shimmering "goth-pop" moments.

The follow-up to their 2022 debut album 'Dead Awake' stays true to the band's spirit whilst pushing things forward in a way that feels timeless and more meaningful, and brings with it a newfound clarity and lyrical honesty. Delving into themes of regret, loneliness, confusion and obsession, it's little wonder that the album title is 'In Limerence' – a state of intense, all-consuming romantic longing. The band (comprised of founding members Kevin Goddard [guitar/vocals] and Sophie Landers [drums] alongside new bassist Daniel Armstrong) say of the new album: "There is a constant theme of trying to find happiness in a confusing modern world. In a time of protest, this album is itself a protest by expressing how to feel in such a world."

Medicine
by Goat

supported by 30 fans who also own “In Limerence”

A mellower, more fuzzy and guitar-driven side of Goat - at the depths of the indica-clouded valley (You'll be Alright) it feels a little Dungen/Fiske adjacent, with notable peaks of wakeful demi-doom emerging, such as Unemployment Office or Resistance. What can I say, except GOAT. Tom Colquhoun
