Seattle dark folk duo Love & Pain to release new EP ‘It Comes in Waves’

(Photo by Rant Salt Casey) Out on May 6th is the newest EP from the Seattle dark folk duo Love & Pain. The “It Comes in Waves” EP comes hand in hand with the new single “Exit Scene”.
Love & Pain was formed in 2018 out of the union of Seattle musicians Natalia Czajkiewicz and Brad Clifford. Taking inspiration from dreamy 60’s doo wop and artists like Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and PJ Harvey, Love & Pain’s debut release “Shivers” delivered 5 songs.
The band’s new 2022 release, the EP “It Comes In Waves”, finds them purifying their sound even further through 5 songs.
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
