Welcome to Darkplay, a new wave band fronted by Sergio A. Soto and Max McDonald. Sergio and Max began working together as members of the indie rock band <a href="spotify:artist:0pk5L9U8pUeSHSEjTY7D4h" data-name="Cold Violets">Cold Violets</a> in 2015. In winter 2018, they wanted to explore a darker sound with post-punk and stark synth elements reminiscent of their favorite bands from the 1980's. As a result, the discoveries are more pessimistic, cynical, and celebratory of the innately deviant.
Darkplay's first full-length album, Worked Up, is a mix of energetic post-punk rockers and moody dance tracks, with guest appearances from the cross-dressing punk diva <a href="spotify:artist:3gRJ1u9WSDCQrql99WXcqB" data-name="Dmtina and the Bumps">Dmtina and the Bumps</a> and pop lover <a href="spotify:artist:5opuPWZaWQ9XlIyVUo5EbH" data-name="Coleman Moore">Coleman Moore</a>.
Their sophomore album, Goner, was released on March 5th, 2021. On Goner, Darkplay dives head first into the new wave genre with lush synths, harmonized choruses, flowering guitars and the occasionally jarring instrumentation. The lyrics and themes are dramatic and dark, but the mood and sound is warm and inviting. At its heart, Goner is a soap opera for night owls. Singles released off the record include 'Only You', 'Sacrament', 'Deja Vu' and 'Knuckles'.
