About
Named after the astrological term for the harmonious union of two conflicting elements, Los Angeles' Sextile similarly blends industrial, surf-punk, psychobilly, and ambient in their raw yet dramatic post-punk. In 2014, guitarist/vocalist Brady Keehn and drummer/vocalist Melissa Scaduto moved from Brooklyn to L.A., where they soon met bassist Kenny Elkin and guitarist/keyboardist Eddie Wuebben. Sharing similar taste in music as well as a love of the occult, Sextile attracted the attention of Felte Records when they opened for Ritual Howls. Their debut for the label, A Thousand Hands (which was named after a vision Wuebben had during an open-eye meditation session) arrived in August 2015. For their follow-up, Sextile worked on the synth-heavy, politically charged songs that became 2017's Albeit Living in an Echo Park basement.
