Frankenstein Bolts

**Frankenstein Bolts** are a Dublin-based indie rock duo known for their moody, atmospheric sound that blends haunting vocals with gritty electronic textures. Formed in 2011 by multi-instrumentalists Shane and Elaine, the pair crafts brooding anthems that explore themes of love, loss, and existential unease, often anchored by hypnotic rhythms and shimmering synths. Their 2013 debut album *Happyness* (featuring the standout tracks "Dying Halo" and "Dark Hotel") earned them a cult following for its raw emotional energy and darkly poetic lyricism. Recent releases like "Winning" and "Heaven" showcase their knack for merging introspective lyricism with danceable grooves, while remixes like *The Holy Roman Army Remix* highlight their collaborative experimental edge. With a sound that nods to acts like The xx and Warpaint, Frankenstein Bolts continue to carve out a space where melancholy and momentum collide.
