Dark Day
Dark Day was a New York-based experimental post-punk/no wave project active from 1979 to the mid-1980s, founded by artist and musician Robin Crutchfield after his departure from the seminal no wave band DNA. Known for their eerie, lo-fi soundscapes blending primitive synths, tape loops, and poetic spoken-word delivery, Dark Day became cult favorites in the downtown NYC art-punk scene. Their 1979 debut *Exterminating Angel* (featuring the track "Window") and follow-up *Darkest Before Dawn* embraced a dystopian aesthetic that felt like a sci-fi film score for CBGB's basement. After Crutchfield left in 1980, filmmaker Stuart Sherman continued the project, releasing the *Strange Remains* EP in 1982. Though short-lived, Dark Day's surrealist approach to DIY electronics left fingerprints on industrial and darkwave genres, with their work later rediscovered via reissues like *Hands in the Dark* (2020).
