BLACK MARBLE are one of NYC's most promising synthpop/darkwave outfits, with their debut LP, "A Different Arrangement," released in October on Hardly Art topping many critics' best of the year lists. And understandably so. The band's sound marries synthpop to synthpunk, alternately bleak, melodic, punk and electronic. Don't miss this, their their first-ever live appearance in Lost Angeles!

COLD SHOWERS fuses the sort of dreamscape typically associated with Shoegaze to the melancholia of the Darkwave. A band who, it is mentioned in most reviews, would fit comfortably "in the dusty catalog of Factory Records," perhaps because of the talents of the members... AND just the right revolving counterbalance between piston-precise drumming ala' Steve Morris, resounding bass leads worthy of Peter Hook and the alternately complex and catchy guitarwork of a chap who could very well be the next Vini Reil
y. Their debut on Dais made a lot of Top Ten lists around the country last year...and very deservedly fucking so.

With an appearance slated for the next Downwards Records comp and their debut LP set to drop in 2013 on Felte (and a 12" EP to precede it), FLAAMINGOS is poised to be more than just one of PTP's newest favouritest darkwave bands. Imagine a collection of extraordinary Depeche Mode b-sides circa "Speak & Spell" that you've never heard before + the imaginary Kraftwerk LP recorded between "The Man Machine" and "Computer World" and you're almost there...
