Fine Place, a compelling duo made up of Frankie Rose (of Vivian Girls fame) and Matthew Hord (formerly with Running and Pop. 1280), has emerged from Brooklyn, NYC, to deliver their stunning debut album, This New Heaven. This record showcases a blend of electronic pop and post-punk, creating a soundscape that resonates with the current cultural zeitgeist.
The album encapsulates a unique auditory experience, steeped in a dystopian vibe inspired by New York City’s atmosphere during times of uncertainty. With minimalist structures entwined with gothic synths and rich six-string delays, Fine Place’s music offers listeners an evocative journey. Rose’s emotive vocal performances shine brightly within the shadowy, expansive sound that pays homage to ’80s pioneers like The Cure and Cocteau Twins.
