IAMIMPERFECT release dark electro debut EP ‘Reincarnate’ – Out now

IAMIMPERFECT
Sheffield-based dark electro band IAMIMPERFECT has released their debut EP, “Reincarnate”. This introduction offers a blend of darkwave, synthpop, industrial, and goth genres, augmented by complex synth arrangements, electronic drums, distorted guitars, and vocal harmonies.
Thematically, “Reincarnate” explores intense subjects such as addiction, insecurity, depression, anxiety, and fear, culminating in a message of growth and renewal.
“Reincarnate” is now available across major digital platforms, including Bandcamp and Spotify.
About IAMIMPERFECT
IAMIMPERFECT is the duo of Paul Jackson (vocals, synths, programming) and Kelly Dorset (guitars). Formed in the northern city of Sheffield, the project began as Paul transitioned away from his previous guitar-heavy project, Paul Venkman, and shifted toward a more synth-driven sound. In 2022, Kelly, formerly of The Way Of All Flesh, contributed guitar to Paul’s new tracks, which quickly shaped the new direction of the project.
By mid-2023, IAMIMPERFECT began rehearsing for live performances. They opened Saturday night at the Ravenspurgh Online Goth Festival and supported Byronic Sex & Exile during their “Stage Fright Tour” in Leeds.
In 2024, the band released their first single, “Static & Feeling”, accompanied by a launch gig in their hometown. IAMIMPERFECT promises more releases throughout the remainder of the year.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help.
