Pictureplane - Black Nails

At the surface, a lot of Pictureplane's music sounds like 1990's dance floor bangers a la Night at the Roxbury but that's part of the allure of his music.  blend that super colorful and loud 90's aesthetic with nightmare dark overtones, modern cynicism, and Travis Egedy's hushed voice, and you get Pictureplane's new album: Thee Physical.

i've been waiting for this thing to drop for mooooooonths (out as of July 19th) and i shit myself when Altered Zones streamed the whole thing for free 10 days early.  the album is amazing, impossible not to dance to it, and he manages to do something i have not yet seen in the world of gravewave/witch house/fuck you music.

he has shit to say.

he talks about things that are very relevant to the modern era of virtual narcissism.  as social/virtual media expands, people are becoming more connected and disconnected at the same time.  the physical world dwindles and the desire for physical touch and face to face emotion weakens.

we are all post physical.

so bang this shit and dance with some people.
