Curses share the ultra synthy synth pop of “Another Heaven” today. There are so many 80’s throwbacks and references that I can’t keep up. I started to count them but I lost track. Is that expected? Most definitely.
Having recently signed to Italians Do It Better for a new album, out later this year, Berlin-based Curses is today sharing new single “Another Heaven“.
On the track, Curses said “This is a love song dedicated to the lost ones, a ballad for the lost ones to belong. We are always searching for that immortal love, divine romance, a truth to our mystery, and when we find it, we can only assume, this creature so perfect so made for you must be from an ethereal unknown place. Beyond what we’ve ever understood before. A saving love unearthly. As a teenager in NYC, I grew up listening to a lot of Latin freestyle music, as well as goth and synth wave music. When I discovered Book of Love, it was like a revelation. A band somehow found this beautiful blend of the somewhat polarizing opposite scenes of romantic electronic music, and to this day play such a huge influence on my production and playing.”

Known for making dark, romantic, cinematic New Wave, threading the visceral connection between 1980’s inspired Goth and melancholic post-punk to the DIY energy of early electronic body music, Curses has previously released two full length albums on Dischi Autunno, as well as a limited edition LP on Paris fashion brand, Saint Laurent, and original music in video campaigns for Dior, and Raf Simons/Calvin Klein. A new album is due out later this year via legendary synth label Italians Do It Better, soaked in the signature Curses’ ghostly guitars and haunting vocals.
