Silver Tears is the new joint venture by Berlin-based gent Luca Venezia and Damian Shilman, respectively of Curses and Skelesys' fame. The duo first debuted in 2023 on Next Wave Acid Punx Deux (Chapter 2) compilation delivering one track rich with deep bass lines, crystal clear guitar string strokes and captivating mechanical drums. One somehow classic formula enriched by an universal allure that left you hoping for more. And here we are: these charming men have been working hard for the past two years and their first, self-titled full-length album is now ready. Eight new cuts of elegant electronic beat-driven coldwave with baritone vocals, sharp arpeggios and no lack of slow passages, recalling 90's shoegaze or moody alternative rock. A subtle play of juxtaposition of dancing moments and introspective retreats, dancefloor oriented grooves and caustic precipices, sometimes crowned by the two dueting at vocals. One wide musical cape to cloak all the angles of the Goth subculture and prove how this can still be relevant some many years after it first bursted out. Silver Tears is out 23 May on deep purple vinyl LP ltd to 500 and digipak CD ltd to 200. Tracklist 01. Again02. Waste of Time03. No Retribution04. Erica05. Remember06. Hollow07. Ernst08.
