VOIGHT-KAMPFF from St. Louis and Minneapolis. And yes, the band's name is a reference to that awesome movie Blade Runner, which is quite fitting. VOIGHT-KAMPFF have been working on these sounds since the last millennium and their efforts will reward your earholes with music dripping with dark basement sounds. Easily lumped in with both Swedish melodic sounds like VICIOUS or SEDATIVES, SAFEWORDS, NERVOSAS with the current ‘80s JOY DIVISION and WIPERS dark punk... I’m hearing a lot of the OBSERVERS’ magic with the in-your-face vocals and the way the guitar hooks weave in and out of a driving rhythm section. Perfect for punks who aren’t precious about where they shelve their JOY DIVISION records.
