This singer's doom-laden pop arrives just in time for summer
With Fever Ray between albums, there's a gap in the (wait for it) doom-laden-gothic-tinged-drone-pop market and Brighton-based visual artist, photographer, singer-songwriter and producer Gazelle Twin, aka Elizabeth Walling, seems like the perfect candidate to fill it. I Am Shell I Am Bone ? the follow-up to last year's debut single, Changeling ? creeps out of the speakers, all oddly pitched vocal harmonies and bass rumbles, with scatter-gun beats and an imposing sense of dread. The video ? a Guardian exclusive ? was filmed and edited by Walling, its black and white images of blurred faces and Sea Life setting enhancing the song's otherworldly quality.
I Am Shell I Am Bone is released on 25 April 2011 by Anti-Ghost Moon Ray Records.
