Kentucky based, Who Saw Her DIe?, have started the spooky season with their latest track “Shadow Man.” Stephen Beasey and Brian Cain make up the Louisville post-punk/darkwave duo.

From the oddly, almost out of place tinny rhythms, to the discordant beginning, there is already an air of foreboding, further played upon with the not quite monotone vocals. They snap out of this with the far more menacing chorus of this very anguished and troubled individual. All is dark and brooding.

I am not going to say this could be about the demented killers in the slasher thrillers, but they don’t sound far off it. Indeed, “The Shadow Man” might be lurking just around that corner waiting and with a soundtrack like this, with its unhinged lyrics and crazed vocals. well it is shaping up to be a pretty good Halloween. What do you expect from a band named after an Italian 70s horror movie? More of this hopefully.
