The Sinister Sounds Of Paradox Obscur Are Getting More Intense With Vulgar Sequence

Paradox Obscur
Vulgar Sequence
Greece

It’s almost time for the new Paradox Obscur album, intriguingly called IKONA, the record hits the sites on September 12. The third single from the upcoming LP is Vulgar Sequence. A synthwave duo from Greece, the ethereal and dreamlike quality of their sound is maximised on this latest snippet. The track is written about the pitfalls of addiction, idolisation of toxic influences, and allowing oneself to be dominated. Chewy indeed, yet the music is written to ensure the philosophy slips in without a fight. Italian filmmaker Simone Pellegrini has put his own imagination to work on the video, and Serra Kösebay distinctly plays the role of the tortured soul for the judiciously choreographed production. For your viewing pleasure, here it is. Vulgar Sequence.

Chunky synths open the tune with rippling bass and splashing hi hats that produce an invigorating rhythm. Sound effects zap and swirl in the mix as the momentum increases over the bars. The lyrics begin, robotic and slightly monotonous, an interesting drama runs over the space. Are we hearing the stream of consciousness from a disturbed evil genius or the delusional dreams of a teenage literary fan. Possibly it’s both, and as the music pulses on with ever moving sections of crumble and slurge, the insistent and devilish words continue to push and penetrate with grasping lines of poetic exclamation.
