The Future of Goth Revival: Last Grasp’s ‘Creature of Your Kind’ Reimagines Darkwave for a New Era

The relentless drive of Last Grasp’s “Creature of Your Kind” is a refreshing addition to the darkwave and industrial scene. Created by Matthew DeFeis and produced by long-time friend Boris Stojanović, this Florida-based band has been making waves since its inception in 2021. With influences from industrial, deathrock, and classic darkwave, Last Grasp pushes boundaries and injects fresh life into the genre, blending haunting atmospheres with raw, powerful instrumentation.
“Creature of Your Kind” captures the intense, almost obsessive side of attraction. Jaysik Smith’s bass and Lo Ormachea’s synth work add depth and grit to the track, setting up a sound that feels immediately captivating. DeFeis describes his love for the track’s chorus, and it’s easy to see why—the refrain digs into the mind, leaving listeners hanging onto every word.
Despite the Atlantic separating them, DeFeis and Stojanović’s remote collaboration yields a seamless sound that feels like a live experience. Trading stems and mixing virtually, they’ve achieved a sound that’s both expansive and intimate. Stojanović’s production keeps everything tightly woven, allowing DeFeis’ vision to shine through without losing its raw, visceral quality.
Their sound places them alongside bands like Vandal Moon and Drab Majesty, yet they bring something darker and more intense to the table. Rather than merely paying homage to the 80s goth scene, Last Grasp crafts a modernized version that feels like a natural evolution of the genre. The track is a testament to how darkwave can continue to surprise and seduce, without losing its connection to the past.
For industrial and darkwave fans alike, Last Grasp’s “Creature of Your Kind” is an unmissable release. It’s a track that pulses with life, wrapping listeners in its evocative world and leaving them wanting more.

Naud Takes Flight with ‘Un Gars Bian’: A Wild Ride of Music & Madness

After ten years of musical mischief, Naud has finally dropped anchor, or rather taken flight, with Un Gars Bian, an album that feels like a hug from an old friend and an impromptu dance party all at once. This high-energy, genre-mashing adventure blends alternative pop, electro, funk, and whatever else Naud felt like throwing into the mix. Think Marseille’s “joyous chaos” bottled up into soundwaves, bursting with playful unpredictability.
Leading things off is “Déjà Vu,” a sweet-and-sour love song about a romance that spanned across Europe but never quite took off, kind of like booking a first-class ticket to heartbreak. It’s got just the right mix of experimental vibes and catchy pop magic to make you groove while overthinking your past relationships.
The album title, Un Gars Bian, is a cheeky play on words, merging Marseille (city in France) slang for “seagull” (gabian) with “un gars bien” (a nice guy). It’s basically Naud in a nutshell: a free-spirited, big-hearted artist who wants to spread good vibes, reckless creativity, and a touch of joyful madness. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also launched an Un Gars Bian t-shirt line, because what’s better than wearing your philosophy on your sleeve, literally? Grab yours here!
So, are you ready to embrace the joyful chaos? Un Gars Bian is the perfect excuse to dance like nobody’s watching and live life with a little more mischief. Let’s gooo!
