JPTR summon darkness with avant-garde offering "Oblivious"

18 July 2016, 17:14 | Written by Laurence Day

Future pop pair JPTR are sharing their beguiling new track "Oblivious", a mesh of primal percussion and tormented vocals.

It's an experimental mesh of soul, punk, electronica, and spoken-word storytelling and using only drums, synths, and voice, JPTR rain hell - "Oblivious" grows from a sinister sapling into a towering, mighty forest. The twosome toy with texture and silence in the opening minute until vivid, jazz funeral beats clank forwards towards a shuddering climax.

JPTR are sharing "one song every full moon in 2016", and "Oblivious" is the duo's seventh offering following "Attack", "Master Babe", "Revolution", "Jesus Christ JPTR", "Skywalker", and "Europa".

Check out the excellent visuals for "Oblivious" below. Find out more.
