Found this in cassette form in a record shop in the 18e district of Paris and instantly loved it. So much energy and nostalgia, not to mention massively memorable hooks!
The record that started it all for me. As a metalhead, I was completely unaware of sythwave until I found this gem, thanks to "Kung Fury". I still come back to this every once in a while. Excellent!
Pylot. Synthwave that is textured, ambient, complex and... heavy! Comparable to melodic metal songs. 'Alice' is a perfect example of just how powerful (and uplifting!) Pylot can be.
