Nothing More feels like a blow from the future: a steel fist, carefully wrapped in velvet so that the pain remains controlled yet unmistakable. Sirenglas build their darkwave sound on a 130 BPM framework of surgically precise industrial drums, hammering into the silence like machine stamps.

Valentine – Breaches
Breaches presents “Valentine,” a love ballad that, while rooted in the sunny vibrancy of 1950s rock ’n’ roll, wears a darker, romantic undertone that quietly unsettles.
