We recently premiered The Hanged Man's track "Into The Night", taken from her forthcoming mini-album First Quarter Moon (due 10 November). Now we've got our hands on the latest cut from that imminent release, called "The Island".
The Hanged Man - Rebecka Rolfart of Those Dancing Days and Vulkano - laces the new track with droning synths, huge bass licks, harrowing vocals and a faintly swung charm. It's like cyber-baroque dipped in black paint.
Listen below.
The First Quarter Moon EP is due 10 November on Kning Disk/Telegram Studios.
