Our Take

Ah, Lydia Lunch and Marc Hurtado, a dynamic duo that sounds like a crime-solving team from a 90s TV show. But instead of solving mysteries, they're creating dark, brooding music that will make you want to put on your leather jacket and stomp around in a moody fashion.

Their latest album, "My Lover The Killer", is a haunting collection of songs that feel like they were recorded in a dimly lit basement filled with smoke and shadows. Lunch's gravelly vocals cut through the murky atmosphere like a knife, while Hurtado's ominous instrumentation sets the stage for a musical séance.

From the gloomy opener "Murder In My Heart" to the menacing "Desire & Destruction", each track on this album feels like a descent into the underworld of avant-garde rock. The lyrics, filled with themes of love, death, and betrayal, are delivered with a twisted sense of passion that is both unsettling and captivating.

While some may find the dark and brooding nature of "My Lover The Killer" off-putting, fans of experimental music will find plenty to appreciate in the haunting soundscape created by Lunch and Hurtado. So grab your trench coat, turn off the lights, and let the music transport you to a shadowy world where beauty and darkness collide.

About the artist

Lydia Lunch & Marc Hurtado

LYDIA LUNCH With a voice that cuts through the noise like a knife, Lydia Lunch is a force to be reckoned with in the world of music. The New York City native first made waves in the late 1970s as a part of the No Wave scene, a genre known for its experimental and confrontational sound. Lunch's solo work is a testament to her raw talent and unabashed honesty, with lyrics that hit you straight in the gut and music that leaves you feeling both unsettled and strangely invigorated. Whether she's crooning over a sultry blues riff or screaming into a wall of distortion, Lunch's live performances are nothing short of electrifying. Known for her fearless stage presence and no-holds-barred attitude, she captivates audiences with her uncompromising commitment to authenticity. MARC HURTADO Marc Hurtado is a sonic provocateur, a master of noise and chaos who pushes the boundaries of conventional music with his avant-garde soundscapes. As one half of the legendary French industrial duo, Etant Donnes, Hurtado has been at the forefront of experimental music for over four decades. His collaborations with the likes of Genesis P-Orridge and Alan Vega have cemented his reputation as a true innovator in the realm of underground music. With a discography that spans genres and defies categorization, Hurtado continues to challenge listeners with his blend of industrial, ambient, and punk influences. Together, Lydia Lunch and Marc Hurtado are a formidable duo, combining their unique talents to create music that is as uncompromising as it is exhilarating. Their collaborative projects, such as the recent album "My Lover the Killer", showcase their mutual love for pushing boundaries and exploring the darker corners of the human experience. In a world filled with imitation and mediocrity, Lunch and Hurtado stand out as true originals, fearless in their pursuit of sonic innovation.
