about this album
‘Carpe Noctem’, the first official single from the upcoming debut record ‘Moments In Ruin’ by Brisbane based post-punk band Ancient Channels, is an anthemic explosion of ideas and sounds. Influenced by the mechanistic grooves of Juju era Siouxsie & The Banshees, synth heavy sci-fi soundtracks and the squalling guitars of modern noise rock, ‘Carpe Noctem’ is a collage of sound: a smeared palette of guitars betwixt noise rock past, present and beyond underpinned by a power shuffle and a volley of synth and bass. This potent combination provides a solid structural framework that accompanies the loose and meandering vocal lines that interlace throughout the song. ‘Carpe Noctem’ is a tribute to the night and a lyrical celebration of the ambient darkness in our lives. A time when our hopes, wants and deepest fantasies coalesce in our subconscious and dance about in our dreams. credits released June 5, 2020 Vox, Guitars and Synths by Kelly Hanlon Drums and percussion by Chris Preindl Recorded, mixed and mastered by Cameron Smith at Incremental Records User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
