I dont really know how to describe this band. Featuring members of Rapid Youth, the first thing that came into my head when listening to Interracial Coupling was 'surf goth'. I appreciate the fact that this term is an oxymoron in itself, but the music is literally and simultaneously sunny and dark - in equal measure. There is something of a 50's Rock & Roll element to all of this too, in particular i've seen a lot of comparisons to Roy Orbison, but i think listening to the songs themselves will describe their sound more succinctly than i could ever muster
