Right now I got to keep it real with y’all — Monet of Nyx Division has one of the illest voices in modern-day Post Punk! This human can fucking sing and their voice is off of the chain! This is why I’m beyond stoked to share the new Nyx Division visual “Orchid Rain” with y’all. Later this year, their new album Dark Star comes out on Play Alone Records and on CD via BatCave Productions. It’s time for y’all to press play below and release the bats!
Collective influences range from New Wave of British Heavy Metal to Shoegaze, with our most salient roots being in Post-Punk. Nyx Division bears sonic likeness to early era Snake Corps, Scorpions, & Southern Death Cult. Exploring themes of identity, gender, love, & sensuality, Nyx Division strives to honor the darker side of rock n roll/post-punk with driving dance anthems, contagious riffs, and addictive melodies.
Amidst a backdrop of worldwide isolation, virulent illness, unrest, corruption, and struggle, Nyx Division found solace not only in the company of each other, but in the undeniable power of creating something new together. In an age where what is essential has been brought into unparalleled focus, Nyx Division claims a sound that reminds us to never forget that the resilience involved in allowing oneself to have fun in a world that remains expectant of misery is a revolutionary act all its own.
