Our Take

The latest release from gothic rock legends Skeletal Family, "Light From The Dark," is a transcendental journey through the deepest, darkest corners of the genre. With their signature haunting vocals and ethereal guitar riffs, this album is a masterclass in atmospheric storytelling.

From the moment the opening track "Darkness Falls" kicks in, it's clear that Skeletal Family are back with a vengeance. The band's ability to create a sense of foreboding and mystery is unparalleled, drawing listeners in and refusing to let go until the final note fades away.

Tracks like "Skeletons" and "Lost In Time" showcase the band's knack for blending catchy melodies with eerie, otherworldly soundscapes. Each song feels like a mini horror movie, with vocalist Claire Kinky's mesmerizing voice serving as the perfect narrator for the band's twisted tales.

But it's not all darkness and doom on "Light From The Dark." The album also features moments of unexpected light, such as the dreamy, shoegaze-inflected "Eclipse" and the melancholic, piano-driven "Gone With The Dawn."

Overall, Skeletal Family have crafted a truly immersive listening experience with "Light From The Dark." It's a must-listen for fans of the gothic rock genre, and a testament to the band's enduring legacy in the music industry. So grab your black eyeliner, put on your best lace gloves, and immerse yourself in the dark, brooding world of Skeletal Family.

About the artist

Skeletal Family

Skeletal Family, the gothic rock legends hailing from the rainy streets of Keighley, West Yorkshire, have been haunting the music scene since the early 1980s. Fronted by the enigmatic vocalist Anne-Marie Hurst, this band's signature sound is a blend of dark, brooding melodies and pulsating post-punk energy. With their roots firmly planted in the gloomy atmosphere of UK's underground music scene, Skeletal Family rose to prominence with their debut single "Trees" in 1983, a haunting anthem that solidified their reputation as one of the pioneers of gothic rock. Their follow-up singles, including "Promised Land" and "She Cries Alone," further cemented their status as a force to be reckoned with in the alternative music landscape. Hurst's haunting vocals, coupled with the band's eerie guitar riffs and pounding rhythms, create a sound that is both chilling and captivating. Their live performances are a mesmerising experience, with Hurst's commanding presence and the band's raw energy drawing audiences into their dark, atmospheric world. Despite their long history in the music industry, Skeletal Family have remained true to their roots, refusing to conform to mainstream trends and continuing to push boundaries with their music. Their latest album, 2012's "Songs of Love, Hope and Despair," is a testament to their enduring creativity and commitment to their unique sound. In a music landscape saturated with cookie-cutter pop acts and manufactured personas, Skeletal Family stand out as a beacon of authenticity and originality. With their dark and haunting melodies, they prove that true artistry knows no bounds.
