The scythe like guitar hooks that were a staple of Gothic-Rock are a rarity these days—so much so that to hear them again is a refreshing awakening of dark energy that burns with the scent of clove cigarettes. Philadelphia’s Night Sins have a resurrected a sound initially nursed by the doktor in Leeds, and honed in continental Europe—evolving into what highlighted those dark nights dominated by the stampede of boots on the dancefloor.

The track Crystal Blue pulls no punches with the growling bellow of Kyle Kimball’s vocals echoing over a marching percussion, vin a melodic guitar riff that would turn your breath cold in the middle of summer.

Crystal Blue is on the new Night Sins album Dancing Chrome
