about

'The Body is the Wound' EP is the first new material from the band since the lauded 2019 album Rituals of Surrender. While Rituals ‘crushing doom laden riffs… assaulted the speakers with its steady pulse of noise’ (Narc magazine), this new collection of songs feature a more diverse set of audio weaponry, firing crunchy synthesiser stabs at razor-sharp guitar riffs to create a hypnotic and inventive vehicle with which to carry vocalist Maya’s gothic poetry.

The lyrical themes dance around sex, murder, suicide and broken dreams, brought together in loose storytelling that allows listeners to add their own experiences and bring personal meaning.

'DIRTY GUITAR RIFFS TWIST AROUND MENACING ELECTRONICS, DRIVEN EVER ONWARDS BY PULSATING RHYTHMS. NOTHING IS WASTED, AND NOTHING SUPERFLUOUS IS ADDED. BUT FRONT AND CENTRE REMAINS MAYA BERLIN’S POWERFUL, MESMERIC VOCALS.'

'WHAT ELEVATES THE TRACK EVEN FURTHER ARE THE SPECTACULARLY OFFBEAT VOCALS THAT REMIND ONE OF LYDIA LUNCH AT HER MOST CHAOTIC AND DANGEROUS, THE ORCHESTRATION HELPING TO ENHANCE ITS MENACING UNPREDICTABILITY. A HELL OF A WAY TO CONCLUDE PROCEEDINGS.' THE SLEEPING SHAMAN

'9/10 FOR A PERFECT EP' EVER-METAL
'DREAM ONE IS A HELL OF AN INVENTIVE SONG – IT SEAMLESSLY MELDS THE MOST CATACLYSMIC OF DOOM RIFFS WITH THE VOLATILE SENSUALITY OF GOTHIC ROCK AND THE IMPERSONAL BATTERING OF INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS AND IT DOES IT WITH AS MUCH STYLE AS A FUCKING CATWALK SHOW IN MILAN...
IF YOU HAVE EVER WONDERED WHAT HAVING A MOUNTAIN DROPPED ON YOU FEELS LIKE, LISTEN TO SPOTLIGHT AND YOU’LL HAVE AN IDEA.'

'WHEN DID YOU SEE HER LAST GRADUALLY PICKS UP THE PACE AND THE EMOTION. THIS HEAVY ON THE BASS, LIGHT ON THE HAMMER COMPOSITION IS AN ABSOLUTE DREAM TO LISTEN TO, ESPECIALLY IN THE EARLY HOURS WITH A PAIR OF OVER THE EAR HEADPHONES ON. THE VOCALS AND GUITAR FADE IN AND OUT BEAUTIFULLY TO FULLY COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER ON THIS FABULOUSLY OUTSTANDING SONG.' 4.5/5 METAL EPIDEMIC

Love those Peter Hook/Simon Gallup like bass lines. Vocals are eerie and wonderful. CARPAGE

What a beautiful, haunting experience all around, always melts me from start to finish. Incredible and deep sound, amazing atmosphere and cohesion, unexpected jazz elements unlike anything I've heard, and don't get me started on the vocals. Really hard to choose a favorite track. dan-rod

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles

I can safely say I've never been this excited over a piece of plastic in my entire life! This is awesome! It's impossible to pick a favourite when every track is a banger. The lyrics are on point and delivered with an acerbic wit and passion that leaves me in no doubt that they're spoken from the heart. I need more of this in my life! Dylan Barry
