I hit play on the new single from Berlin darkwave post-punk band Bleib Modern and I was immediately overtaken by the spirit of afterhours dancing in a damp warehouse somewhere under the bleak gaze of communist architecture. Their sound is crisp and captivating, flawless vocals piercing the gorgeous atmosphere of melancholy. Goddamn, I miss dancing at post-punk shows with all the beautiful people. The band has a new album about to be unleashed on all of the people of the night, and today we’re excited to share their single “Walls”! Afraid To Leave is out March 21st – pre-order the vinyl via Icy Cold Records and cassette via Black Verb. Their livestream album release happens on March 12th for a global audience – RSVP here. Right now, enter their world of “Walls” with our premiere:
