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.
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.
Shadowhouse is set to embark on a West Coast tour on June 17th. See dates below.
