Have You Heard?
Ipso Facto - "Harmonise"

These dreary seemingly never-ending Kansas winter days make me want to wallow in dark music and dress in all black. I cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel in this snowy abyss. OK, so maybe I’m a bit melodramatic, but if you can’t beat it then embrace it, right?

Fitting with my mood my ears are engaged to the sounds of Ipso Facto. Emerging from London, this all girl “goth” band is described as “creeping noir pop” (Vice Magazine) or “Monochrome psychedelica that is Horrors-esque, dark garage pop” (Drowned in Sound). I think I even read them being compared to early Elastica -- you know, that whole brit-pop thing.

To me, they sound a bit like a less punk, more goth Sleater-Kinney. Sleater-Kinney in the early days, I should say.

Not to mention they have the cutest vintage style and the hottest hair around.

Maybe I’m also a sucker for organ music.
