Vision Video + Go Go Cult
Vision Video + Go Go Cult
Vision Video is a post-punk goth rock band from Athens, Georgia that injects modern malaise into classic sounds of the late 70's and 80's.
The band pays homage to classics like the Chameleons and The Cure, while also bringing a refreshing modern element to the genre.
Thematically their music explores the effects of trauma on the human psyche and finding stability and agency in an insane world. Having served in Afghanistan with the army and as a firefighter in the civilian world, lead singer and guitarist Dusty Gannon is no stranger to the darker proclivities of humanity and death itself.

“The slinky, savage yet warmly delicate March Violets, whose thirst for mystery, magic and brutal darkness has set them apart.” –Winston Smith, Sounds – June 18th 1983

Gothbox: Palindrones + IAmImperfect + Lilac Underworl

We've got some great acts for your enjoyment, from Lilac Underworld's mystical, musical melodies followed by IAmImperfect with their simultaneously heavy and rhythmic backing, fronted by a spacey use of synths and vocals, before we bring the bands to a rush, getting lost in Palindrones titular droning audio vistas.
Once we deign to grant the bands their contractually obligated break (or […]
