Talk To Her announce second album “Pleasure Loss Desire” for 30 October via Shyrec/Icy Cold
Talk To Her
Italian post-punk band Talk To Her will release their second album “Pleasure Loss Desire” on 30 October via Shyrec and Icy Cold Records. Available now is the lead single “PLD”. accompanied by an official video directed by Daniel Bagolin.
The band describes the track as “built on dark, obsessive synths, tribal drumming, sharp bass, deep baritone vocals, and guitar textures,” adding that the song “gradually mutates… culminating in an explosive, intense, and liberating finale.” The single and album were co-produced and recorded by Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher).
The overall sound of the new material is colder and more aggressive than the band’s debut, with post-punk at the core and late-’90s/early-2000s post/alt-rock influences.
