LatinX San Diego based industrial/darkwave trio Matte Blvck have unleashed their latest single entitled “Pupula Duplex.” The track embodies the hard-hitting club-industrial sound that defines the band as well as introduces a fresh, boundary-pushing element to the world of dark electronic music. Drawing inspiration from the 90s’ big beat’ era acts like The Chemical Brothers, Aphex Twin, and The Prodigy, “Pupula Duplex” combines these influences with a modern, aggressive production, elevating the overall listening experience.
Their upcoming album, Vows, to be released this summer, is set to explore new territories while keeping the signature industrial/darkwave tone that Matte Blvck is known for. The album features slow valleys of sunlight with airy guitars, chorus-drenched basslines, and pop hooks, but it also may be the band’s heaviest work to date. The album’s theme and title, Vows, is an ode to themselves and each other to aid their inner turmoil and always to put the body of work first while keeping their friendship of 27 years intact. The world might be falling apart, but Matte Blvck has been able to create art through complexity and reconciliation with utmost confidence.
Matte Blvck have over 1 million streams and are set to tour in venues and festivals across the US, Central and South America.
