about

O’ Henry O Henry…
"Hearse is the worst!"
Rolling in the grave...

Half man half car… A vehicle for aggressive 'vampire bat like' sonic tension and release. A stateless vagabond… he roams these empty halls… O’ Henry lead the way… Henry for Henry’s sake… His debut album -VALET- has been 2 years in the making… Toiling through darkness, emptiness. and drenched in isolation…

-VALET- is a refreshingly bizarre album release that blends the best / worst parts of New York No Wave, Batcave Post Punk, Swamp Goth, EBM, Industrial, Electro, and Dark Techno into one ravey grave. Only one Hearse in town and his name is Henry.

Flux Webzine write up:

www.fluxwebzine.it/en/henry-hearse-valet/

"Henry Hearse is one of a kind. The New York project sees the man Henry Hearse himself, Moody Romeo, Lee Kevlar, Aleera Vampira playing and tweaking with almost forty years of underground dark music and electro-tinged sounds. Post-punk, deathrock, darkwave, synthpunk, EBM, nowave, techno have a meeting in a graveyard during an insane night with “recreational substances” and dangerous ventures in the downtown.

Creepy, sexy, old-school, modern, physical, ethereal, campy, grim: it does have it all. The vampiric theme is the starting point for a crazy voyage among metropolitan mutants, stylish undead, lysergic atmospheres. Humor, seriousness, abstract visions and earthly affairs have their course in a schizo-dimension where the “half man half car” protagonist lives (or better said unlives) its adventures.

We are very lucky to experience this period of time in which underground artists feel free to explore, mix, mutate, elaborate past’s music in order to obtain something new. Henry Hearse is for sure one of them and Valet is a very well-thought debut and a surprise needing much praise and attention.

In a market full of same-sounding releases with rehashed ideas, sometime composed in the span of a day, this kind of products stand among the others thanks to their character. But it’s not only a question of being different – Henry Hearse’s music is good, very good. Buy the cassette or the digital version and support this great assemble so that we can hear more music from them in the future!"

WL/WH write up:

whitelight-whiteheat.com/features/wl-wh-track-of-the-day-henry-hearse-friends-in-low-places/

“The musical project of New Yorker musician/producer Henry Hearse, with the contribution of Moody Romeo (Bass Guitar) and Lee Kevlar (Brass, Drums), has several irons in the fire but, judging by the first two previews, even if completely different to each other, are synthesized with deft balance and cohesion sharing distinctively minimalistic and visceral gripping qualities.

While the opener “Hydrophiinae” is as pulsing and robotic, as it is edgy and obsessive, cyber-electro-punk cut, the closer is completely a different beast, drawing influences by jagged no-wave dissonance, swampy Gun Club post-punk murkiness and sordid, turbulent The Birthday Party raw bluesiness. but from what can be understood from the teasers over his FB page also, EBM (above all), goth-tinged electro darkwave and Suicide-like synth-punk suggestions can be added to the extensive and intriguing menù.

Foreground, at the same time repetitive and solemn, doomsaying bass throbs, a blisteringly evocative sax, tinny ominous percussive drones, a devilish voice, hoarse and distorted, in a Freudian free-flow association building a possessed tirade of rhymes and alliteration, underpinned by terse and hypnotic drums to proceed in a mysterious, hypnotic, slow yet inexorable pace, shredded by piercing metallic guitar riffs, sharp, frantic, taut always restrained to the point of pent up angst, while sparse swirls of sax add an alluringly eerie middle-eastern feel and the constant menacing bass vibrations foster unsettling claustrophobic obscure emotions embodying by a relentless subdued tongue-lashing that hisses and growls, as it taunts, humiliates and tempts whoever will listen.

A dense, immersive, tantalizing sound, pervaded by a raw obscure and gloomy intensity whose disturbing echo will reverberate deeply into the deepest recesses of your mind.

Henry Hearse‘s debut 6-track EP “VALET” is due to be released digitally on October 25, 2019,” - 4 Sept, 2019

*Follow up review*

- I’ve been listening to Henry Hearse debut non-stop has rarely happened to me recently. A unique and electrifying mix of post-punk, no-wave, psychedelia, synth-punk, industrial noise, made of boisterous, excruciating guitar riffs, rattling percussions, sick vocals and those tantalizing sax notes combined with throbbing and bouncing electro, recalled me hints of Suicide, Tom Waits, the Birthday Party, Ry Cooder, Cramps, and Detroit-electro. It took me in a mesmerizing and poignant mental journey across the decay and dissolution, the sleaze and degradation around the murky and dirty maze of the streets and alleyways around Bowery or at The Village, or at least that’s how I envisioned them while listening to the Velvets’ or Suicides’ album since I was young, packed with disinherited and defeated, prostitutes and drug dealers, in a rarefied, claustrophobic and noir-ish atmosphere saturated with neon-lit that squeezes your soul leaving you empty, disturbed and drained with around a vague yet enveloping smell of alcohol, chemicals, and decomposition. Highly recommended! - 28 Oct, 2019
