Laura Carbone is back with her critically acclaimed 2nd album, "Empty Sea". Bolstered by recent tours with The Jesus And Mary Chain, INVSN and The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, on “Empty Sea” Laura Carbone delves deeper into the intoxicating mix of dark reverb-laden pop melodies, searing rock riffs and noisy feedback chaos hinted at on her debut album “Sirens”. Written partly in the gray claustrophobia of the German winter and finished in the vast golden expanse of the California desert and the gritty glare of L.A., “Empty Sea” boldly oozes the confidence and swagger of a survivor. Laura Carbone moves effortlessly here from sexy tribal stomp to delicate beauty, Brecht-ian mystique and beyond. Prepare to be charmed and disarmed, battered and bruised, to ultimately emerge from the depths of the “Empty Sea” grasping desperately for the “REPEAT” button.
Berlin-based Laura Carbone’s latest single, “The Flowers Beneath Your Feet”, saw her joining forces to duet with Kip Berman of NY’s The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart on this sparkling, noisy dream pop diamond-in-the-rough.
