Death and the Maiden: Uneven Ground (2024)
With a band name which conjured up Edvard Munch and the Verlaines’ song of that name, it’s little surprise reference points for this Dunedin band are early Cure and Joy Division/New Order. Washes of guitars, synth drums, bass to the fore, repeated and minimalist trance-like melodies, but singer/writer Lucinda King’s ethereal vocals and lyrics elevate the often mesmerising, if familiar, atmospheres.
