Portland Post-Punk Act Shadowhouse Unveils Video for “Bleed”

The music of Portland post-punk act Shadowhouse summons a distinct mixture of dark post-punk, goth, and darkwave, with their brooding basslines and icy synths. This is evident in their new single and video for “Bleed”, a song featured on their latest haunting gothic rock opus, Forsaken Forgotten.

Justin Pogue of Vacant Stares co-wrote the track a few years back with vocalist Shane McCauley.
“In writing this song…I wore my sleeve on my heart, says McCauley. “It’s about seeing how selfish and vapid everyone is and they know they are, but they’ll go to great lengths to deny their hypocrisy.”

The monochromatic performance video, their second filmed by Wayne Moreheart, (ACTORS, Korine, Spectres, Girlfriends and Boyfriends). Both a lyric video and a moody illustration of a touchy subject, Moreheart’s cinematography captures both individual crisis and the highly artificial, combative zeitgeist of today.

Watch the video below:

Shadowhouse underwent four years and multiple personnel changes, with time spent recording in five different studios: Felix Fung (Mode Moderne, Spectres) at Portland’s Hallowed Halls; Little Red Sounds in New Westminster BC, Psychedelic Inner Temple in Portland, then two songs (“A Year Today” and “Tonight”) with Mike Lastra (The Wipers, Neo Boys, Poison Idea) at Smegma Studios in Portland. The album was finalized and mixed by Alex Arrowsmith at The Basement of Solitude in Portland.

Shadowhouse’s Forsaken Forgotten is out now via CD and a limited edition of 300 vinyl via Icy Cold Records.
