No pieces in this puzzle fit
It’s an endless hole
An empty space surrounded by walls
There is no exit
There is no light
We’re stuck here forever
Artificially alive
I can hear the darkness calling me
And the shadows crawling underneath
This is how it feels
To be left alone
Your head down in the gutter
To be drowned in your own blood
Beaten to death
Washed ashore
To give up on everything
To be wanting for more
I can hear the darkness calling me
And the shadows crawling underneath
When everything seems fine
Everything seems alright
It keeps on lurking
Not too far behind
I can hear the darkness calling me
And the shadows crawling underneath

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2021
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023
Bleak, throbbing work that lands halfway between coldwave and shoegaze, this Berlin group hits that spot just under the breastbone. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 15, 2017
