This week our First Signs of Love spotlight falls upon London three piece, Little Death Machine. It’s unclear whether their name was inspired by the Chapman brothers artwork of the same name, but what is clear is that they make pleasingly dark music. (‘Little death‘ is a literal translation of the French term for orgasm, la petite mort).
The lyrical refrain “I can’t hear you now, there’s nobody here” runs around in your head like the remains of a recurring nightmare it’s engrossing, threatening and compelling. We love this track.
