With “Nothing Holy” the band around mastermind Simon York returns after the successful albums “Desolation” (2008) and “Commitment and Discipline” (2010) as well as the single “Empty Men”. The single is available on CD exclusively on the band’s website and from November 23rd 2012 on in every well-known download store. Luxury Stranger are mainly influenced by the typical british Post Punk and New Wave from the years 1978 – 1984 and the Grunge of the 90s. Though two close, but tonal very different styles of music meet, the band achieves, to link them, without losing the proximity to bands such as Joy Division, The Cure and The Chameleons. Paired with Simon’s perverse, passionate and gloomy lyrics, which are inspired by novels from Charles Dickens, George Orwell or Phillip K. Dick, excellent compositions, which breathe the breeze of their musical idols, without copying them, are the result. Luxury Stranger prove once more, that modern Post Punk and New Wave can spray the same rough charme as in the very first days and give a forecast to the EP, emerging next year and the new album.
