Incredible debut album from the LA-based duo comprised of Cortland Gibson and Elaine Chang. Released on April 1st via their own imprint Over-Pop, the self-titled LP follows up the 2020 EP "Crisis Talk" (originally released under Dock Hellis monkier). The result is a minimal, raw and charged with pure energy record that offers a unique spin on modern body music. While oozing the tekno-EBM and industrial influences all over the album, Spike Hellis also offer a more obscure and mutoid take on the genre. Tracks like "Flight" or "Slices" sound like they were forged in fire by //TENSE//, Vandalaze and PC World. They actually got a co-sign from the former's frontman Robert Lane during their recent show, as well as a shout out from Light Asylum's Shannon Funchess - that should speak volumes. As far as I know the album should come out soon-ish on a cassette tape as well as vinyl, but the details are still a bit foggy at the moment. Keep your eyes peeled.
