NEW Release

AntiVenom

Viasonde - 2026

Antivenom is Darkswoon’s third full-length album, further refining the band’s emotionally charged intersection of darkwave, post-punk, and shoegaze. Built atop a hardware-driven electronic foundation, the record balances cold mechanical textures with an intimate human core, ethereally soaring vocals floating over melodic yet gritty basslines and propulsive, kinetic rhythms, creating a dense sonic web that at times pushes Darkswoon into more expansive shoegaze territory. The songs on Antivenom function as an immersive, atmospheric whole, yet retain a sense of urgency through cautionary missives, unresolved emotions, and the weight of things left unsaid, channeling introspection into focused, resonant songwriting.

Bloom//Decay

Icy Cold Records - 2022

“It’s where we always find them, on that daunting emotional fulcrum, teasing out tension with a mission-like seriousness – Darkswoon do many things but fucking around isn’t one of them – all the while never swerving from their purpose as musicians, their songs, those songs’ melodies, forever luring us into the world to be swirled up in a mix of confusion, love, loss, fear, despair, hope and a version of joy touched by each of those. From that perspective, Bloom Decay isn’t just a success, it’s a revelation.” - Dave Cantrell, Stereo Embers Magazine, “Back Into that Enchantedly Troubled Landscape – ‘Bloom Decay’ from Portland’s Darkswoon” - October 2022

BIND

Icy Cold Records - 2019

"The album channels both fierce electronic prowess and shoegaze-inspired guitar textures… As such, the band channels both the detached chill of early Fever Ray and Eurythmics as well as the churning menace of Modern English...both incredibly powerful and irresistibly catchy at once." - Frank Deserto, Post-Punk.com
