French Darkwave Duo LOVATARAXX have debuted their first official music video in the visceral clip for pulsing synth barrage that is “Ana Venus”.
Taking lyrical inspiration from various mythological backgrounds, romantic poetry, and fancy advertising slogans, or sci-fi novels, LOVATARAXX deliver a sonic bombardment of layered dark synthesized sounds and frosty bass riffs and drum machines, evoking the synthpunk sensibilities of forbears such Suicide, DAF, Fad Gadget, Tuxedomoon or Kas Product.
This resonate onslaught of analog arpeggios is showcased in the pair’s spectral video for “Ana Venus”
Watch the video for “Ana Venus” below:
Ana Venus is featured on LOVATARAX’S forthcoming debut LP Hébéphrénie, which takes its name from the goddess of youth, and thematically deals with the impression of “coming too late into a world too old”, feeling split into two different states of mind: delusion and disillusion.
Hébéphrénie is out November 15th via Unknown Pleasures Records.
