• What does the end of the world sound like?
• Robotic, vicious, spiralling seduction : “KARMAGEDDON” is Kylie on Ketamine and Beyonce in the microwave. Whatever it is, the end of the world according to Abbe May sounds pretty fucking sexy...
• Australian electronica/doom pop star, Abbe May, is from a small coastal town in the SouthWest of Western Australia. She records music in a small studio by the Indian ocean with her best friend and producer, Sam Ford (Pond - Beard Wives Denim). Prior to the forthcoming album, “Kiss My Apocalypse”, May released LP "Design Desire" in 2011. The album was awarded a place in the Top five Australian albums of the year in The Australian Music Prize.
• After 'Design Desire', Abbe May took a sharp new turn away from her heavy guitar riffage and into the hook laden world of weirdo pop. “Karmageddon” is a surprising song for a West Australian country girl to conjure up… Perhaps that is why it is so disturbingly cool.
• After touring the record on the summer festival circuits, May and Ford embarked upon a year of experimental recording with a mellotron and a drum machine. First single, "Karmageddon" - a vicious slice of doom pop and one hell of a 'fuck you', has become a cult hit across Australia. Karmageddon's direct lyrics leave little to the imagination as to what inspired the song.
• Forthcoming album, “Kiss My Apocalypse”, is devoted entirely to the concept of the death of love
In french:
• Un album tres différent de ce qu'elle proposait précédemment. Ca risque de dérouter les fideles de cette chanteuse australienne a ranger jusqu'alors dans la rubrique alternative rock. Ici, l'orientation est beaucoup plus pop, mais le charme subsiste. “She sings of betrayal over and over, but never does she resemble a helpless victim”.
