Electric I In Power Alternative electronic rock makes no better sense than from the hurricane mind of Ireland’s pMad. The social media presence that he effortlessly carries punches well above the weight of many others with breezy and collaborative posts that keep everyone in the loop. A brilliant sound of punky rough and brazen rhythms and chords splurge from the speakers as we endorse the airwaves with pMad’s creative sonic agenda. A heavy and inventive use of computers and digital effects lends his goth inspired vocals the spacious and resonant backdrop they command. Taken from his album, I In Power, Electric produces the voltage and pushes the amps into an eclectic fantastic groove. Ripping beats push the boundary down to the ground as the bass ramps up the atmosphere. A vocal slenderly creeps into the forefront with a snaking ripple through the evolving mix. A tinge of robotic meets human emotion with lyrical questioning and poetic consciousness. Stabbing bass tones lunge at us from the corners with gifts of rhythmic clarity as pMad continues with the storyline. Harmonies and additional rhythms craft a ghostly and darkly journey through forests of ambient subtle groove and pulse. Sombre and spacious, pMad’s Electric bends the bass tones and sinks into kick as the familiar monologue mashes the scene.

Fury Co. Galway It’s always a treat when pMad sends something over for Sound Read Six to feature, the Irish goth-wave fan-favourite maintains his piledriving energy with trimmings galore. The latest track was released on America’s Independence Day. Fury is described as that time when your fury just boils over. I’ve been there, you’ve been there, we’ve all been there. Sometimes things so go against our wishes or way that we’re simply left feeling like we don’t exist, make sense, or matter. That’s what makes me angry, anyway. pMad might have his own ideas so we had better listen to the music and find out what it sounds like. A sneaky synthesiser sound slithers into the system as chunky rhythms rise in the bass. pMad begins, a spoken-word song in his usual emotionally charged and controlled style begins. A thrashy drum and quick paced guitars join the music to bring a rocking industrial edge to the gloomy evocations. Guitars chunter along in palm-muted rhythms as notes lean out from the mass into wailing feedback. The surge of rhythm takes the music into intense zones of headspace as pMad defines the heated moment. Elements of Rammstein and Mortiis join in with darkwave volleys of looped beats.

Down Co. Galway Released on Valentine’s Day, pMad’s new single covers the deep subject of emotional abuse at the hand of a partner. Leaving one feeling dejected and with the foundations of self-esteem undermined, recovery from this collision of souls can be a life-long process. Because memories are formed by emotion, we typically remember the shocking and disturbing things the most. This is why emotional assaults are so devastating, where-as some can live in their minds alone and ignore these sensations, others can only live in the constant waves that don’t seem to stop. The song is a conscious reminder for all the listeners out there to take care of yourself and protect your energy, learn how to build that mental wall and don’t forget the gate. Influenced by bands like The Smiths, The Sisters Of Mercy, and Suicidal Tendencies, pMad’s brand of alternative gothic rock reaches listeners old and new. A juicy bassline begins the music with a groovy guitar sound that follows quickly after. The drumming hits straight away and leans forward with the oncoming verse lines. Paced lyrics holler into the darkness with reverb and warmth to greet the kiss of cold shadow. Chunky industrial guitars build through the messages to lever the rock attitude in an upward direction. As the chorus hits, layers of melodic guitar and motoring chords coalesce in a draughty swagger of rhythm. Progressive elements give the mix a shifting sensation as the instruments jam in precise motions across the firm and solid bassline. Dancing in underground club bars and pushing the legal limit on the motorway, this is a song for adrenaline and joining in. You can follow pMad on Facebook and TikTok |
