Florida‑based darkwave and experimental electro‑riot artist Violent Vickie has returned with a brand new single, "High", marking the second preview of her forthcoming album Conjure, expected later this year. The track follows last December’s single and video "Open The Door", which already hinted at a more immersive and sensuous sonic direction.
With "High", Violent Vickie leans deeper into a hypnotic blend of pop‑tinted synths, pulsing beats, and her unmistakably sultry vocal presence. Imagine a sonic offspring of Gary Numan, John Maus, and Fiona Apple—a fusion of coldwave tension, art‑pop eccentricity, and emotional rawness—and you’re close to the intoxicating atmosphere she conjures here. The song revels in the allure of human touch, wrapped in a darkly seductive electronic haze.
You can experience "High" below, and for those who missed it, the previously released single/video "Open The Door" remains available to explore HERE. Link
