UK post-punk/gothic horror unit The Exceptional Mr Hyde introduce their latest single, "Ship Of Sorrow". Accompanied by an equally cinematic music video, the track explores themes of isolation, resilience and the hidden emotional scars that people often carry unseen.
Musically, "Ship Of Sorrow" blends atmospheric post-punk with dark indie and gothic influences, while subtle Eastern European gypsy-inspired guitar textures add a unique sense of tension and melancholy. Link
