Sidewalks And Skeletons - Exorcism

I've been putting off checking out Sidewalks & Skeleton's latest album for months now, and man I'm glad I finally did. "Exorcism", released like his previous three projects by Re:Mission Entertainment, is probably Jake's best album so far. It's a perfect collage of mainstream-leaning witchhouse, that heavily draws from synth-pop, dark electro/chiptune, trap, industrial techno and even phonk. For everyone who liked but (rightfully so) cancelled Mr.Kitty and Crystal Castles, this LP will be a blast, as the echos of their styles definitely define some the album's most pop-friendly hits.

"Exorcism" is out now via Bandcamp, there you can also pre-order last copies of the vinyl version of the album. Stream the whole thing below.
