Los Angeles cold wave/minimal synth/electro artist The Present Moment (aka Scott Milton) has revealed details of his upcoming new album 'Enough To Drive You Mad.'
His fifth studio album was recorded in Los Angeles during the 2020-2021 lockdown against the backdrop of Covid-19's seemingly unstoppable fear and omnipresent suffering and will be out on May 1st. Pre-order your copy here.
Dark, blunt, and beautiful ETDYM dives unflinching into the horror of watching a world flail in helplessness through waves of sickness, misinformation, anger, hypocrisy and greed, all the while clinging desperately to the concept of empathy and the endurance of the human spirit.
Enough To Drive You Mad marks the second recorded collaboration between project founder Milton Scott and award-winning composer and singer/songwriter/producer Jason "Halogen" Dunn. Milton and Dunn began working together with the B-side of 2019's Split album, which expanded THE PRESENT MOMENT'S minimalist synth sound with the addition of live instruments and shifting arrangements, a melding of worlds that continues to allow Milton's haunting voice and gift for lyrical imagery to paint new characters and scenes over a lush landscape of shimmering guitars, driving bass lines, and pummeling drum loops - in concert with the hypnotic arpeggio lines and synth soundscapes that the band's fans hold dear.
