Video Pick

Post-punk act Talk To Her unveiled the new video and first single, "PLD", out of the new album!

Italian post-punk band Talk To Her announced the release of their second album, "Pleasure Loss Desire", coming out on October 30 via Shyrec/Icy Cold Records. “PLD” is out now with an accompanying video that amplifies its obsessive and freeing journey.

Prior to the album, Talk To Her return with their brand-new single “PLD,” making it the first preview of the new LP. “PLD” is a descent and emotional ride into dark synth layers, tribal drumming, sharp basslines, and deep baritone vocals, building an obsessive atmosphere that slowly transforms verse by verse, ending into a seductive anxiety, in search for an escape. What begins as dense electronics evolves into raw, intense instrumentation, delivering the lyrical call for breaking free and surrender. "PLD"k builds up tp an explosive, liberating ending that perfectly mirrors the themes of the album.

The lyrics highlights music's tension between addiction and liberation, pleasure and obsession,  loss and salvation, desire and control, depicting the need to get out and feel alive again.

With "Pleasure Loss Desire", Talk To Her explore the duality of isolation and fragility, blending wave roots with post-punk intensity and dark alternative nerve. Co-produced with Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher), the album promises to be their coldest and most aggressive work yet.

"The album traces a descent into a cold world where clarity and oblivion endlessly alternate in search of balance, oscillating between moments of calm and emotional outbursts, exploring the duality between detachment and alienation. Each track unveils contrasting emotions—desire, suffering, nostalgia, hope, fear— painting a raw portrait of the fragilities of those who live in an era marked by uncertainty and changes. With 'Pleasure Loss Desire' Talk To Her explore new soundscapes compared to their previous record “Love Will Come Again”. The themes once tied to the emotional and passionate sphere give way to alienation, suffering, and fear. The overall sound, as well as the vocals, becomes colder yet more aggressive: while still maintaining a wave influence, particularly evident in certain tracks, the post-punk component is predominant, enriched by strong contaminations of post- and alternative rock from the late ’90s and early 2000s. The album was co-produced and recorded by Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher)."
