April - Bloody Sticky Stuff in Feature Creep online gallery, of hypermodern horror, with a detailed response to the song:
Light Shadows’ Bloody Sticky Stuff is a synth song, very much in the vein (yes, there will be vascular puns in this. Or, you could say, there will be blood) of what we used to call darkwave and/or industrial back in my day. Basically goth meets EBM, (electronic body music) a sort of warehouse gothic with elements of dark disco. Light Shadows’ particular take on the genre (which likely has a different name nowadays) expertly threads the needle of being a stylistic throwback without ever feeling stale or gimmicky. Carrying forward the mood and vibes of goth’s heyday, as well as its clarity of purpose, while remaining contemporary in its outlook and presentation.
