Following the critically acclaimed latest album South Of Heaven (2020), today post-punk artist Fotocrime announced the release of his third full-length record entitled Heart Of Crime, out on the 27th of August via Profound Lore. Founded by Louisville, Kentucky based singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Ryan Patterson (Coliseum), on his third studio album Heart Of Crime, Patterson continues to explore what he refers to as "electric Southern romanticism". Featuring 11 tracks of moody and electrifying post-punk with a healthy dose of industrial and EBM thrown in for good measure, Fotocrime's brand new release is not only an album that throbs with pulsing synths, hammering drum machines, and economic guitar hooks, but also a release that may be Fotocrime's most personal offering to date.
“This is by far the most direct and personal thing I’ve ever done in that 99% of everything on the recording is me”, Patterson says. “It’s the first album I’ve ever recorded and mixed myself.” You would never know that Heart Of Crime is his first venture into engineering an album on his own! Where 2020’s South Of Heaven found Patterson’s songs supplemented by Steve Albini-recorded live drums, a different approach was required for its follow-up. The worldwide pandemic broke outright as Patterson kicked off the South Of Heaven tour cycle with a string of shows in Mexico. Consequently, Heart Of Crime is the austere response to quarantine life. In support of the upcoming new album, Fotocrime just shared a brand new music video for the electrifying track "Delicate Prey". Link
