Electro-industrial project SKYND has released their debut track 'Elisa Lam'. The single, as shown by the title, tells the story of Elisa Lam who was found dead in the water tank of the Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles in 2013. The video shows a dark and disturbing series of events that are fitting for a horror film. You can stream the video directly below: 


The music picks up this concept of the boundary of humanity perfectly. That’s why her vocals are so defamiliarised. You can tell this is a human being, but it sounds grotesquely inhuman. Listening to these tracks, you should feel like you’re in a tiny room and the walls are closing in from all sides. In her lyrics, SKYND is the perpetrator and us as listeners are cornered victims. Nobody can escape this kind of dynamic. -F

I've been writing for Brutal Resonance since November of 2012 and now serve as the editor-in-chief. I love the dark electronic underground and usually have too much to listen to at once but I love it. I am also an editor at Aggressive Deprivation, a digital/physical magazine since March of 2016. I support the scene as much as I can from my humble laptop.
