About
Future of Horror derive their project’s name from a repeated lyric in “Hellraiser,” the final track on the six-song Future of Horror EP. But both Camello and Matic will admit it’s also a reflection of the social, economic, and political times in which we are living; the future dystopia that was threatened as an inevitable way of life sometime in some undefined later date has arrived fully formed for us to contend with each and every day. And while the reality that plays out comes with its own brand of scares, Future of Horror was conceived through its two principal members’ shared love of horror cinema and poetry.
The first chapter of Future of Horror unfolds like b-movie cinema. Raw and vulnerable, with an uncertain air of danger hanging overhead, Future of Horror spans a spectrum of moods, styles, and genres: A machine-gun blast of beats on EP opener “Away”; the late-night VHS erotica appeal of “Funny Games”; a straight-jacket fit of EBM and darkwave on “White of the Eye.” The sci-fi house of mirrors called “Hellraiser” closes the EP, and floats it off into the unknown. It’s a cohesive collection of sounds but each with their own spiritual personality, all conjoined by Matic and Camello’s artistic, moon-lit vision.“
