CARRIE ABYSS, the urgent, politically charged new project of London-based artist Bernadette Lara is cathartic rage manifested. A punch-in-the-guts-powerful distillation of her years of musical experience and wide range of influences that has misogyny, queerphobia and the oppressive political situation of her native Türkiye firmly in its sights. Alternative metal and industrial fuse to craft something as hyper as it is caustic and eviscerating. An honest, emotionally maximalist musical exploration of her early-20s identity crisis that brings to mind the soundtrack to an epic final boss battle in a feminist revenge video game.
