THE DISCUSSION DROP LATEST SINGLE ‘IN DEATH AND LIFE’ – LISTEN HERE
“ALL THE PRETTY FLOWERS’ OUT MAY 23 VIA ARTOFFACT RECORDS – PRE-ORDER HERE
Los Angeles-based post-punk outfit The Discussion, the brainchild of Laura Pleasants (KYLESA), continues its run of somber, spectral singles with “In Death and Life”, out now via Artoffact Records.
“In Death and Life” delivers a stark, hypnotic reflection on solitude, survival, and the quiet violence of everyday existence. With lyrics that echo like a mantra—“I walk alone / in death and life”—the track captures the weight of emotional isolation through pulsing synths, haunting repetition, and a rhythm that feels like a slow, inevitable march through memory and despair
The track follows the release of synthetic lullaby “Get To You” and slow-burn, trance-inducing “Blue Light”.
With a relentless touring schedule planned for 2025, The Discussion is building something bigger than just a series of releases—it’s a growing, immersive sonic world. Step inside.
ABOUT THE DISCUSSION:
Warm cold dark light ~ This is the solo project and vision of Laura Pleasants, previously known for her work with the indie metal / psych rock band KYLESA. Fresh out of the studio with producer JASON CORBETT of the band ACTORS, Laura takes her love and roots of New Wave, Post-Punk, and Goth to the forefront with The Discussion for 2024. You can hear her pulling from the likes of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Blondie, The Cure, and Asylum Party while weaving in elements of Kraut Rock classics such as Neu! and Harmonia, as well as shoegaze heroes My Bloody Valentine, Loop, and Slowdive. Starting with “In The Mirror”, The Discussion are releasing a waterfall of singles before hitting the road hard in 2025. The band is based in Los Angeles.
