JJPOP13 Dark and punchy, no numb at all. I received their previous CD with this one as a welcome gift, both are great stuff. Feels like what Jeffrey Lee Pierce would be doing those days. Favorite track: Dead Train.

Max Dread Dark and dank, like going down a tunnel through a gauntlet of terrors. Love the two previous Vincas records. Seen them live many times. To this fan, PHANTASMA is a leap forward. Maybe it's just the band maturing. Maybe it's the thematic strain tying the songs together. Maybe it's the addition of Gene Woolfolk on guitar (from the much missed The Powder Room). Title track was in contention for favorite, but Rains Red wins out because of the awesome Big Black-style stutter reverbs on the drums. Favorite track: Until It Rains Red.

released May 29, 2020

"Hailing from Athens, Georgia, deathrock act Vincas are invoking a special kind of Southern flair to their dreary punk-infused cemetery dirges. These haunted melodies and vampiric tunes are more Birthday Party than Bauhaus, and the Caveman and late Roland S. Howard might approve of these macabre whiskey-soaked anthems that stagger along with swamp-like guitars, growling bass, and frontman Chris McNeal’s wicked baritone croon."
–Post-Punk.com

"Imagine if Nick Cave, Southern Death Cult and The Cramps had a 3-some... Primal post-punk classic."
–CVLT Nation

"These southern gothic firebrands have spent much of the past decade making maniacal death-punk and postpunk with a stomping garage-rock fury and a devil-may-care attitude straight from a 60s outlaw biker flick."
–Chicago Reader

"A uniquely Southern brand of post-punk/death-rock... Macabre and bludgeoning... Stark and fatalist lyrics with a menacing, on-the-edge fervor."
–Big Takeover

"Swampy and stompy... lustful and vampiric."
–ReGen

"Georgia post-punks Vincas unite H.P. Lovecraft and Nick Cave..."
–Idioteq

"Your limousine to Hell has arrived in the form of Phantasma."
–Yellow Green Red
