Light Asylum - Heated Cinematic Synth Punk






Light Asylum are Shannon Funchess and Bruno Coviello from Brooklyn, New York, USA.


Having spent years touring and performing as synth pop project The Dreamies, Coviello channels a different strand of influence and completes the LIGHT ASYLUM sound alongside Funchess. The result is an uncompromising, rugged mixture of coldwave, EBM and electro-industrial structured through pop of the toughest sensibilities. A LIGHT ASYLUM production straddles underground electronic club music and radio song culture – part introverted, aggressive vehicles, part bright, jubilant fanfares – passages of carefully devised harmony and melody bloom between stabs of driving keyboards and drum machines.


They released their first EP “In Tension” in 2010. The four track EP was re-released in 2011 through Mexican Summer and licensed to Cooperative Music


The self-titled debut album is scheduled for release in May 1, 2012.
