STRAIGHT RAZOR – Black Smoke Rising

While Omar Doom is well known for his acting work with director Quentin Tarantino, appearing in Death Proof and killing Hitler in Inglourious Basterds, Doom committed most of his creative life to making music. Doom’s latest endeavor STRAIGHT RAZOR, a mix of 80s/90s Industrial, Techno and Dark Wave, cuts through the speakers with menacing beats and a hypnotizing clockwork melody. Following a string of singles and remixes, Doom released Straight Razor’s Vol.1 EP in 2021, following it up with Vol.2 in 2022. 2023 saw the debut of Omar Doom’s record label, DOOM VISION, with a Straight Razor Vol. 2 remix album released on April 28th.

A gooey, grooving beat with the bass turned all the way up is the glue that holds this delicious new dark wave release from STRAIGHT RAZOR. With a melodramatic vocal performance reminiscent of Robert Alfons and Trent Reznor, Black Smoke Rising is a potent piece of cyberpunk artistry that checks off just about every box on the industrial list. A roiling sea of electrifying sound, Omar Doom’s latest effort keeps with his edgy creative legacy and lays new foundation for his peers in the dark wave genre.
