Bleakness – Blurred Visions LP

Bleakness draws its influences from English post-punk and Californian death rock of the 1980s, blending them with the intensity and urgency of the contemporary punk/hardcore scene. The result: a dark post-punk sound, both energetic and melancholic, that revisits the atmosphere and rebellious spirit of the pre-gothic scenes while injecting a dose of punk rage.

In 2025, Bleakness crossed the Atlantic for a US tour on the East Coast and in the Midwest, and took the opportunity to record their third album at House of Foto Studio in Louisville, Kentucky, with Ryan Patterson (Fotocrime, Coliseum). It was an intense week spent in the Germantown neighborhood, refining the band’s sound and identity.
