Gaze to the mirror
This hazy night’s so nice
My demons around
And it’s making me whisper
Korine, the Philadelphia duo of Morgy Ramone and Trey Frye, spins silk from sorrow, their music a fusion of new wave shimmer and punk urgency, laced with a modern pop heartbeat. Their songs flicker between euphoria and ache, neon-lit anthems for the restless and the lost. This is music for neon-lit nights, for hearts caught between past and present, for those who find solace in the bittersweet. Think New Order, Cold Cave, and Choir Boy reimagined for a sexy new club in an unfamiliar part of town.
A fevered confrontation unfolds in In Your Eyes: accusations swirl, truth twists, and denial dances with desire. An electric tension crackles between icy stares and whispered deceptions, each line pulsing with a dangerous allure. The struggle between self-awareness and self-destruction plays out in the mirror’s reflection, where demons lurk, lust lingers, and the night blurs into temptation. This is expressed so beautifully with their signature gorgeous ethereal synths, Ramone’s voice delivering a powerful pathos with this gentle anthem. Play this one loudly.
