This isn’t a debut; this is a collection of bangers you can’t be without.” -Distorted Sound “That’s what I call a start! Singer/guitarist Kat Keo and drummer Kim Coffel formed the band in 2020, a year later their four-song EP got the attention of Relapse, and here we have their debut. And to me it feels like a revelation – to come up with your own and fresh style today is something almost unheard of. The girls combine their melodic rock with a gothic feel and create a catchy intersection of dynamic music and melancholic vocals.” – Spark Magazine Czech Republic “The fact that acts like Unto Others, Blackwater Holylight or Amorphis have already toured with Hoaxed is easy to understand from ‘Two Shadows’. Grab this disc and go on a nightmare journey with Kat and Kim yourself, in the course of which horror and beauty alternate at irregular intervals…Warm greetings from two dark hearts, enveloped in great talent and fascinating imagination.” – Sonic Seducer Magazine Germany |
