FOTOKILLER • Eerie Nostalgia • LP

It's Eleven Records

The debut album Eerie Nostalgia by Berlin-based band Fotokiller transports listeners straight into the post-punk era of the 1980s, all while maintaining a contemporary relevance both musically and lyrically. Thoughtful, and at times imbued with a tone of desolation, the lyrics carry a strong sense of longing, contrasted with danceable, catchy melodies. Fotokiller guides their audience gently at times, then explosively at others, evoking nostalgic memories, reflections on an inevitable future, and a yearning for stability in a world that feels out of control. The influence of iconic bands like The Cure and Joy Division is unmistakable, while inspirations from Soft Kill, Wipers, and Pink Turns Blue also resonate throughout this LP.
