Bristol-based band DAMEFRISØR have dropped their enticing new single, ‘D.O.D’. The band have found an interesting place between electronic music and industrial post-rock. Their slow-building textures are somehow simultaneously eerie and danceable, while vocalist Kazhi Jahfar’s lead vocal has a punky edge that could’ve been plucked directly from the 80s. Explosions into ethereal, synth-driven instrumental sections are a key feature of their sound, and at points, feel almost euphoric. “The song talks about the feeling of going through something but feeling as though no one is aware of your existence,” they say. “Loneliness in cities is a recurring theme across the record, musically I feel like the song explores the intensity of trying to be seen with all efforts amounting to nothing.” DAMEFRISØR’s new EP, Island Of Light, drops on February 24th, 2022. -Dan Peeke.
