Kosmetika Shares Reward Risk

Leave a comment

As they prepare to unleash their next album, Melbourne’s Kosmetika are offering a punchy little punk ditty to let you sink your teeth into their sound. Their first single from the record was a little more expansive, but the rhythm section on their new hit preps you for a jolly good time. Guitar lines attempt to knife their way with a bit of sharpness, though it gets scuppered by the melodic nature the band seem to consistently be working towards. Their call and response vocal bounce adds a layer to the playfulness, taking a little bit of that edge and turning it into a proper pop number. Luxury drops on July 12th via Spoilsport Records.

Kosmetika Announce Luxury LP

Leave a comment

After getting a couple albums in the bag, Kosmetika have begun to work as a collective as opposed to their earlier days as a duo (with a band supporting); this has culminated in the completion of their latest record, Luxury, which features input from all five members, stretching their sound. Today, there’s a new single coming across the ocean, and it’s riding a wave of what will likely get pigeonholed as modern shoegaze. Sure, there are waves of noise battering your speakers, but there’s something deeper and more seductive. Veeka’s vocal work feels almost as if it’s nodding to radio pop of the late 80s/early 90s, kind of coy and spoken, though moments sneak out where she completely embraces the melody. It’s really an amalgam of influences, illustrating the band’s newfound cohesiveness…this only bodes well for Luxury, which drops on July 12th via Spoilsport.
