Today’s video of the day is Holygram – “Signals” released in 2018.
The video for “Signals” by Holygram captures the essence of modern post-punk. Released in 2018, this track is the lead single from their debut album, Modern Cults. The album came out on November 9, 2018, under Oblivion/SPV and Cleopatra Records. Holygram, a Cologne-based band, formed in 2015. They combined post-punk, shoegaze, and industrial influences to create a unique sound. Sadly, the band disbanded in January 2020, leaving behind a brief but memorable legacy.
Modern Cults explores themes of alienation and modernity. “Signals” sets the tone with its driving beats and haunting melodies. The song reflects the band’s ability to create both urgency and introspection. The album builds on the atmospheric style introduced in their 2016 self-titled EP. The video for “Signals” enhances the song’s mood. Stark visuals and dim lighting evoke a sense of mystery and isolation. Fans of post-punk and new wave will appreciate its aesthetic.
Compared to their earlier EP, Modern Cults feels more cohesive. Tracks like “Signals” show growth in their sound and ambition. The album blends shimmering guitar lines with deep, resonant vocals, creating a timeless post-punk feel. Though Holygram’s time as a band was short, their music resonates with fans of darker, atmospheric rock. “Signals” and Modern Cults stand as testaments to their talent.
