Shore Leaves by Spiderman Pterodactyl
After a self-titled debut album released in 2018 and two EPs in the following years, Spiderman Pterodactyl returns with his new album Shore Leaves.
The band has evolved and since 2021 has welcomed the lyricism and deep voice of singer Aïtone behind the mic. Shore Leaves is above all an album of adventure, which, like its visuals, created by artist Célia Genevois, evokes sometimes fascinating, sometimes disquieting lands.
Alternating between lightness and darkness, violence and grace, the album swings between the frenetic new-wave pop of Drive Safe and the dark cold-wave of Go Away before turning to gentler, more poetic shores. The punch and energy of singles The Item and The Whale are also present.

Dreamy, dark and absurd, that's the definition of the sound of Spiderman Pterodactyl, a Montreal based band, extended to Paris with the addition of the singer Antoine Cathala (aka Aïtone).
They merging their influences from post-rock, electro, pop and wave into an electro-rock blend: analog beats, heavy with synths and floating guitars
