More than a band, they are conjurors of sound casting cinematic spells woven from desert dust, post-punk pulse, and gothic devotion. Their debut self-titled album, from Library of the Occult Records, offers 10 mesmerizing tracks that flicker like séance candles: hypnotic, pulsing, filled with some sort of unspeakable intent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFormed by vocalist\/bassist Sonia Campbell with visual artist and guitarist\/synth wizard Daniel Martin Diaz (Trees Speak), the project began with a chance encounter and a shared instinct to make something special. Joined by lead guitarist Daniel Singleton and drummer Daniel Thomas, the quartet quickly found its alchemy.
