Our Take

In the dark and twisted world of goth music, one band reigns supreme: Shadow Project. Their latest release, "The Original Tapes 1988," takes us back to the glory days of the genre with a collection of haunting tracks that will send shivers down your spine.

From the moment you press play, you're transported to a dimly lit underground club where the air is thick with cigarette smoke and the sound of melancholic guitars fills the room. Fronted by the enigmatic Rozz Williams, Shadow Project exudes a sense of otherworldly mystique that is impossible to resist.

The album kicks off with the brooding opener "Days of Glory," a slow-burning anthem that sets the tone for what's to come. As the distorted guitars and eerie synths wash over you, you can't help but be drawn into the band's hypnotic spell.

Tracks like "Alive" and "Penny In A Bucket" showcase Shadow Project at their most raw and vulnerable, with Williams' haunting vocals cutting through the darkness like a knife. The band's ability to blend elements of post-punk, goth rock, and industrial music is nothing short of masterful, creating a sound that is both timeless and utterly captivating.

If you're a fan of all things dark and moody, "The Original Tapes 1988" is a must-listen. Shadow Project may be gone, but their music lives on, a haunting reminder of the power of goth music to transport us to another world. So dim the lights, light a candle, and let Shadow Project take you on a journey to the shadows.
