Activity
**Activity** is a Brooklyn-based experimental post-punk project formed by Travis Johnson (vocals/guitar) and members of bands like Grooms and Beach Fossils. Blending shadowy synths, jagged guitars, and brooding vocals, they create a tense yet danceable sound that nods to ’80s darkwave while feeling distinctly modern. Since emerging in the late 2010s, they’ve carved out a niche with releases like their 2020 debut album *Unmask Whoever* (Western Vinyl), which introduced their knack for claustrophobic atmospheres and existential lyrics delivered with deadpan intensity.
Recent tracks like “Department of Blood” and “Scissors” showcase their signature mix of industrial textures and melodic unease, while collaborations (like Xiu Xiu’s remix of “Department of Blood”) highlight their ties to NYC’s art-punk scene. Live, Activity transforms their studio precision into visceral performances, often swapping instruments mid-set to keep their haunting energy unpredictable. Though shrouded in mystery, their music feels like a midnight subway ride through a flickering city—equal parts menace and magnetism.
