KÅRP about 'Greasy Makeup'
The electro band KÅRP is back with their new single "Greasy Makeup," a solid punch of knuckles greased with equal parts electro, synth-pop, and techno. It is the first single from the concluding EP in KÅRP's apocalyptic trilogy. Whether the title alludes to faces painted for battle or if it's simply what is visible when one gazes into the mirror when in the doomsday city of Gothenburg remains uncertain. However, with its distinct sound built upon dark beats and a compelling sense of melodies, it doesn't really matter – this is music that makes you feel first and dance later. Fans will recognize themselves in it.
"This is the beginning of the end of the beginning. We are living in a time where it feels like the world has abandoned us. I mean, us humans. Everyone reacts differently to being abandoned; some arm themselves for battle, while others go out in the rain and let tears run down their cheeks. Whichever you prefer, we recommend that you do it to the sounds of Greasy Makeup."
