Buckle up, shadow-lurkers and darkwave devotees, because Twice Dark is back with a sonic eruption guaranteed to raise the hairs on your neck. “Telekinetic” isn’t just a song; it’s a full-blown assault on the senses, a potent cocktail of goth rock, industrial muscle, and eerie electronics that will leave you breathless and wanting more.
Hailing from the neo-gothic heart of Bloomington, Indiana, mastermind Josh Kreuzman is the architect behind Twice Dark. Inspired by the melancholic grandeur of decaying industrial landscapes, Kreuzman weaves a piece that’s equally haunting and beautiful. “Telekinetic” is a prime example – a perfect blend of shadows and hooks that will have you swaying and headbanging in equal measure.
Kreuzman’s background shines through on this track. The instrumentals are, as Brutal Resonance aptly described, “phenomenal.” The drums pound with a relentless, industrial heartbeat, while the guitars churn out a thick, distorted riff that’s as catchy as it is menacing. But the real star of the show is Kreuzman’s voice. Deep and brimming with baritone gravitas, it adds a layer of operatic drama to the proceedings, perfectly capturing the song’s dark energy.
But “Telekinetic” isn’t just about brute force. There’s a surprising amount of melody lurking beneath the surface. The chorus is pure gothic earworm territory, a chant that burrows into your brain and refuses to let go. It’s a testament to Kreuzman’s songwriting skills that he can balance aggression with accessibility, creating a song that’s both dark and danceable.
Then there’s the atmosphere. Twice Dark has always excelled at creating a sense of haunting elegance, and “Telekinetic” is no exception. The eerie synth lines slither and snake around the main melody, adding a layer of unsettling beauty to the mix. It’s like exploring a forgotten cathedral by moonlight – both awe-inspiring and a little bit terrifying.
“Telekinetic” is more than just a new single; it’s a signpost pointing towards Twice Dark’s upcoming album of the same name. If this track is any indication, we’re in for a sonic journey into the darkest corners of the human psyche. It’s darkwave done right – powerful, evocative, and utterly captivating. So, crank up the volume, dim the lights, and let Twice Dark unleash their telekinetic fury on your soul. You won’t regret it.
