Beautiful People by Hackmonocut — think of a lovechild of Joy Division, Johnny Cash and Depeche Mode + vocals familiar with the sound of Roy Orbison? Fans of sad music, this one is yours.

"Nick Cave, or perhaps even The Doors, shine through and tell a wonderfully melancholic story of love that’s painfully intense, loss, and the search for meaning in life. It’s a post-punk dance between the beauty of existence and its transience, as well as loss. 

Hackmonocut’s dark soul has been set free, gifting us ‘Beautiful People’ – a musical gift we gladly accept. Rock, paired with a hypnotic beat, creates an alternative listening experience that strongly echoes 90s Seattle Sound but presents itself in an accessible, modern style. 

The staging is deliberately restrained yet highly efficacious in evoking a sense of foreboding. Each musician and instrument is positioned in a manner that allows them to occupy their own space, thereby contributing to the overall atmosphere of gloom. Naturally, the vocal part stands out even more, but ultimately, it’s the enchanting interplay that defines the band. 

Hackmonocut impresses fully with their new release ‘Beautiful People,’ making me proud that exceptional music exists in Austria as well." Nenes Butler

„Beautiful People“ hat mich mit seiner dunklen und subtilen Schönheit in jeder Note verführt, sein Werk ist wirklich ein Juwel, das inmitten so vieler leerer und vorgefertigter Vorschläge geschätzt wird, und aus diesem Grund teile ich es mit Ihnen" Jean Daniels
