With a more atmospheric approach to Industrial and Synthpop, Other-ed is the solo project of Laur, who you might know as the singer of Darkwave duo Vagua Scare and the French-Australian project Golem Dance Cult.

Although these are not his first footsteps into the Underground music scene, as in the past, he played drums in several Glam/Punk/Rock ’n Roll bands such as Sparkling Bombs, Sugar Sugar, Kevin K (USA) Ricky Bat (USA, One Way Ticket, Guttercats, etc.

Animal liberation being the main theme, Other-ed came into being as a solo side-project in january 2020.

Laur: “Since it all started with the animal liberation theme, I was looking for a name that could have a meaning relating to this too... The fact that animals are considered as "other beings" to justify the way we treat them...“

First release was the digital EP ‘Disruptive Synthetic’, followed a little later by the (during Covid 19 pandemic) at home recorded debut album ‘Sentient’ (march 2021) and a handful of singles (2022/2023). Present time there is now the new album ‘Until All Are Free’.

From the opening ’Abstract Heroes’ ‘till the finishing ‘Eat Yourself’, ‘Until All Are Free’ is a dark bitterly-cold minimalistic album with a taste of 80s Synths and Punk conciseness. 10 songs of dystopian soundscapes with a strong message best to be absorbed far away from daylight.

Available both digitally and on Compact Disc: Until All Are Free | Bandcamp
