It’s not often that an artist of the avant-garde persuasion can actually write tunes with any meaning or melody. When these artists do, they become very intriguing indeed, and Pincers definitely falls into this category.
Not much is known about the man behind the art but his video for “A Sociopath To Fame” is possibly the oddest thing you’ll have watched on YouTube for a while. The song itself is about a psychopath who locates his victims via the internet, kills them, and sends the images to his ex in the hope he’ll become famous.
Not a happy track then? Well, not really, but the music is a brilliant blend of Nick Cave, Gotye, Bowie, and Pincers’ own brand of offbeat, outlandish avant-garde that’ll leave you wanting to hear more.
“A Sociopath To Fame” is taken from Pincers’ forthcoming EP “Molt,” which will be released on November 18th via Volkspark Records.
