Top Pick: Lea Porcelain’s ‘Hymns To The Night’
Over the years there have been a resurgence of the post-punk, industrial, synth and new wave sound that groups like Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails helped to foster into the mainstream psyche. However, it is a rare feat at times to actually come across bands who are trying to push the sound further rather than simply fostering a carbon copy version of the previous groups mentioned. However, when Berlin-based Lea Porcelain came on the scene back in 2015, there was something very other about the pair. Songs such as 'A Year From Here' and 'Out Is In' straddled between melancholic electronica, krautrock, post punk and things in between.
