Los Angeles-based Sacred Skin explore the vastness of spellbinding, anthemic pop music. The first single, Colder was released in March of 2021 and stole the hearts of dark souls everywhere with their melancholic undertones and pitch perfect songwriting. Subsequent singles landed them early live shows at LA’s Substance Festival and famed venue the Hollywood Palladium supporting AFI. The succession of singles and live dates led to the release of their first LP, The Decline of Pleasure in May 2022. With its distinctive new wave arrangements and powerhouse vocals, the album is unlike anything in its class. Their use of early digital outboard gear and samplers, namely the Sequential Prophet VS synthesizer and the EMU Emulator II, retains a classic studio feel that is timelessly unique. Sacred Skin’s second LP Born in Fire was released on September 13, 2024.
THE DSM IV are Jade Ormesher, Guy McKnight (The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster) & Pav Cummins. Based in Liverpool, they’re taking audiences all over the country into uncharted, strangely seductive, dance-rock n’ transcendence!
More than a live show, this is a group that will take you on a journey. It’s a commanding, mesmerising ceremony through the gateways that only music can unlock. Drawing audiences, like summoning spirits, THE DSM IV are a revelation!
Primitive Acid House beats, an anarchic nature akin to The Fall, the wild abandon of the Stooges, the unapologetic freedom of Suicide, the astute observational lyricism of Arthur Lee, the unfakeable attitude of Happy Mondays, and guitars played how they should be and you can begin to imagine what this band are tuned in to.
Born out of their belief in the inexorable destiny of using their lives to make music, THE DSM IV bring their vision into reality with the deep desire to imbue the times in which we live with the belief – in the potential of all things!
