Nightblonde's Numbers

tldr: I'm helping this band put out this record today and I think the vinyl version is beautiful and I think the songs are just the right amount of 80's nostalgia, pop harmonies and goth drama. You really should listen to it.

If you've been reading along, you likely remember me telling you about Nightblonde for awhile now. They are a retro-future inspired shoegaze pop band that is releasing their debut Numbers via yk records - and today is the official day of the albums release. You can hear it in Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Soundcloud, Bandcamp or any other streaming service you enjoy. More importantly, you can finally get your hands on the vinyl version of the album. If you can't tell, the cover is a die-cut configuration that reveals the inner record sleeve and the milky white record within.

I love that the band works hard to have a cohesion in their look and sound - dressing in all white or all black at each performance and making sure the songs, while personal, still touch on Aldous Huxley like dystopian future vibes. They manage to do all that and not be pretentious, not always an easy balance to achieve.

Please enjoy.
