TMN Radio New Artist: In Letter Form

In letter form albumTMN STAFF

Drawing influence from the works of The (early) Cure, Joy Division, Bauhaus, New Order, Echo and the Bunnymen, Interpol et al, they produce a sound that echoes the past, haunts the present and is constantly in the future.

Reflecting on past deeds; some well intentioned while others, not. The ways we had been wronged or the choice to see it that way because sometimes that’s easier than the truth.

The pros and cons of having thin skin to protect a thick heart, put “in letter form” perhaps? A love letter? An anti-love letter? Hate mail? A photograph? A song? An exclamation of the joy of life? A suicide note?

All of the above; In Letter Form.

Adding to the fertile – if somewhat underground – post-punk scene in the Bay Area that includes Vaniish, Naked Lights, Malditos and many more, In Letter Form, come to us, well, fully formed, a discovery so startling we can’t quite make out how they’ve escaped our notice until now, though the title of this early single (a self-titled LP is in production) would seem, in some weird way, to be a self-fulfilling prophecy in that regard. Whatever, we love it, and 2015, as we expected, continues to blow us away.” – Stereo Embers
