Butterknife

About

Hailing from Newcastle (Awabakal), the alternative-pop fem four piece band Butterknife have released their debut EP, titled “lilith”. Butterknife is known to capture the essence of dreamy indie pop infused with the edge of dark/grungy alt-pop, although that's just the base line of their ever-expanding soundscape. “lilith” sees Butterknife venturing into rotten themes and darker instrumentals, differing far from their previous releases. From the gloomy, sweltering synths of “devilman” all the way to the rage-filled vocals of “GOD COMPLEX”, Butterknife are excited by the prospect of showcasing a different, more intense side of themselves. At its core, “lilith” is a collection of dark emotions and self-indulgent tendencies. Throughout the length of the EP, the consistent theme of narcissism is ever present, exploring the shadowed corners of oneself that are often suppressed or denied any spotlight. “lilith” is a powerful narrative that is about embracing one’s carnal moments and is an anthem to living life without restraint.
