“Everyone is feeding on my energy
It could happen to you
Because it happened to me
Voice 2 Skull”
Candace Lazarou’s glammy goth punk quintet Body Double offers up Voice 2 Skull, an EP of five quick and grabby headrockers. In spite of their rage, fire, and noise, one of the most satisfying aspects of the band’s studio recordings are how they contrast crisp and clean minimalism (e.g. opening bassline on “Boil Down to Love”) with layers of crunch and instrumentation (e.g. last minute of Voice 2 Skull). Even better is seeing them live, and watching Lazarou like a demon fully embodying the music she writes.
