trauma ray have mastered shoegaze’s complexity, intensity, and expressive devastation. Their powerful new single “Bardo” is eerie, veering between noisy one string bends and surging headbang, mapping a middle ground between Unwound and nu-metal. trauma ray guitarist Jonathan Perez tells, “Bardo is the in-between. Whether that’s life or death, or a purgatory. It’s about being stuck in between one phase and the next. When you can feel the past fading and yet you can't quite see the path to the future either.” Check out the 3rd single from the forthcoming LP below, one of Trauma Ray's best and heaviest songs to date, the perfect blend of 90s inspired shoegaze, grunge, nu-metal and post-hardcore. Fans of Narrow Head, Deftones, Nothing and Soul Blind should take note.
