Leather Terror

Carpenter Brut

A high-octane collision of industrial metal and neon synthwave. Aggressive, cinematic, and relentlessly loud, it sounds like a slasher film set in a 1980s arcade.

It's like a 1980s slasher movie soundtracked by a metal band using only synthesizers.

A relentless, confrontational energy with moments of cinematic, blood-soaked drama.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden transition from the cinematic 'Opening Title' into the blistering industrial assault of 'Straight Outta Hell'.
Greg Puciato's soaring, desperate vocal performance on 'Imaginary Fire' clashing against the jagged synth riffs.
The relentless, mechanical double-kick drumming that anchors the climax of the title track 'Leather Terror'.
