Pinkish Black
Pinkish Black traces its roots back to a Texan trio named
The Great Tyrant
who was recording an album in 2010 when the bass player
committed suicide.
Eventually the remaining duo regrouped and forged ahead with a new
band (rather morbidly, the name Pinkish Black is a reference to the
color of the blood-stained walls where the suicide took place).
On the surface, this is not metal at all -- there are no guitars or
bass, this is entirely done with synthesizers, drums and vocals.
Yet the moods captured here are dark, mysterious, and haunting, well
within the radar of some discriminating metal listeners.
Essentially the style is a blend of darkwave, goth, industrial,
and ambient/soundscape meanderings, with
2013's self-titled effort being a bit unfocused and somewhat more chaotic,
while 2015's
Bottom Of The Morning brings everything into focus to great
effect.
Again, those expecting conventional metal might turn elsewhere, but
give this band a chance and you'll be rewarded.
