Hailing from Athens, Georgia, Vision Video is a post-punk goth rock band that breathes fresh life into the classic sounds of the late 70s and 80s. Drawing inspiration from legendary acts like The Chameleons and The Cure, they blend the familiar with a distinctly contemporary edge.
At the heart of their music lies a profound exploration of the human psyche, grappling with the lasting effects of trauma and the quest for stability in a world teetering on the brink of chaos. Lead singer and guitarist Dusty Gannon, a veteran of both the Afghan war and the fire service, brings a raw and visceral understanding of life’s darker corners. “I wanted to create music that acknowledged the validity of feeling lost and broken,” Gannon explains, “but also confronts the darker truths of our flawed humanity.”
Vision Video's first two records, "Inked in Red" and "Haunted Hours," garnered critical acclaim. Pitchfork praised their ability to craft "dreamy tunes tailored for the wallflowers who explode onto the dance floor when the DJ drops 'Age of Consent' or 'Primary' at Goth Night." Both albums were recorded and mixed by Tom Ashton of The March Violets at his renowned Sub Von Studios in Athens, Georgia.
The band is currently preparing to record their third LP, "Modern Horror," at Maze Studios in Atlanta under the guidance of Grammy-winning producer Ben Allen. This next chapter promises to further solidify their position as a leading voice in the modern gothic revival, offering a soundtrack for the disillusioned and the restless.
