Spaced-out, shimmering soundscapes that drench in darkness? Now, that’s what we from NOTHING BUT HOPE AND PASSION usually understand under the concept of ‘first love.’ Mysterious Californian duo ULTRA VIOLENT RAYS comes to us directly from the twilight. Cooper Gillespie and Greg Gordon sound a bit like the result of PORTISHEAD and Siouxsie Sioux making love while Blade Runner is on. It’s ambitious goth pop with a modern approach.
Intensity defines the sound of ULTRA VIOLENT RAYS and we’re happy to introduce you to that spirit by presenting you the exclusive stream of the duo’s latest single The Voyeur. A twisted piece of dark magic, something that instantly captivates you, we guarantee it. And now, without further ado, feel invited to follow us right into the heart of darkness.
