Unseen Archives - Pulses

All at just 17 years old, Unseen Archives’ influences span the likes of Joy Division, The Horrors and Late of the Pier and as a result, musically, the band have successfully incorporated all the sombre drones of the of Ian Curtis and gothic pessimism of Faris Badwan, alongside the unpredictability of chaos pioneers Late of The Pier.

However, with single ‘Pulses’ the band fail to showcase the same pizzazz as the afore mentioned artists. Whether it’s apathy conjured by the repetitive and uninspired lyrics or the unnecessary Libertine-esque sporadic yelling, there’s a real feeling that the band could do better.
