Gvllow Drops ‘Spiritwalker’ EP and New Music Video For “Nightmare”

by Charley Johns
“A fascinating solo artist bringing together elements of goth, darkwave, punk and rap.”
– Kerrang!
“One artist who is approaching the current wave of rap-rock crossover from a totally unique perspective is SoCal’s Gvllow, who, rather than drawing on Aught’s nu-metal and emo like most, pulls elements of Eighties goth, post-punk and death-rock into his eerie, dance-floor-ready brand of heavy hip-hop.”
– Revolver
“truly a must-listen for anybody who values variety and intrigue in their playlists.”
– Alternative Press
“From gritty hip hop to cold dark wave, the emerging prospect goes beyond genre to assert an identity all his own.”
– Knotfest.com
Rapidly ascending solo artist, multi-instrumentalist, DJ and producer, Gvllow, has released his highly anticipated ‘Spiritwalker’ EP today. Accompanying the release is a brand new music video for track “Nightmare”, taken from the EP.

The ‘Spiritwalker’ EP further’s Gvllow’s stylistic expansion into post-punk and 80s goth. Heavily influenced by by the likes of Drab Majesty, Sisters Of Mercy and Bauhaus, the transition began with highly acclaimed single “Last Dance” from his previous, eponymous full-length and continued through the first single from ‘Spiritwalker’ – “Fell In Love With A Ghost” – which dropped in December of last year. Between them, the two singles have clocked up 873,000 streams across all platforms.
Speaking on his latest EP, Gvllow shares
“This EP is full of 80s synthwave/post punk tracks paying tribute to some of my favorite bands.”
