With Afar , the Pains of Being Pure at Heart's Kurt Feldman has distilled the synth-pop revival down to its purest, '80's based resin. Despite multiple internet searches, I have found no ancestral databases to confirm the blood relation of Ice Choir's Kurt Feldman to the late '80s superstar Corey Feldman. Nevertheless, I can't but feel like Kurt would have fit in with the Two Coreys and their kin. Feldman, best known for the critical darlings the Pains of Being Pure at Heart, uses the Ice Choir moniker to record the most pure take on '80s synth-pop that's [...]

Ice Choir made their debut on the site last week with the incredible single 'Two Rings.' Now the newly formed collective have released some stunning Ryan Louie directed visuals for the track which you can enjoy above. Serious consideration for our upcoming top songs of the year list. Icy synths, airy vocals and very 802s..... what's not to like!
...Kurt Feldman, current drummer for The Pains of Being Pure at Heart and former ringleader of The Depreciation Guild has always had a fondness for "abstract romantic lyricism and pointilized synthesizer pastiche." And along those lines is the new single "Two Rings" from his new band The Ice Choir... Ποιό pastiche αγόρι μου, εδώ μιλάμε για τυμβωρυχία. [...]

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart member Kurt Feldman releases a new single and video under his personal project, Ice Choir. With icy synths, breathy vocals, and romantic lyricism, what's not to like? Find the 73 on Shelflife .

Layers of vintage synths and buzzy analog bass lines are the new background to the smooth soulful voice of Kurt Feldman in his post-Depreciation Guild project The Ice Choir . More "passionate" than songs from the previous now defunct act, the just released new track "Two Rings" presents lyrical references to "obsidian" and "black rain", keeping everything just mysterious enough for the dream pop genre. Kurt has masterfully encompassed the influences of New Order's "Every-time-I-see-you-falling" (take me back to my swirling alternative rock disco dance music days!), but he is actually a much better singer than Bernard Sumner [...]

Kurt Feldman the drummer for Pains of Being Pure at Heart has a new synthpop side project called The Ice Choir . They have a new single called "Two Rings" that they sent our way as a free download .

MOTM return with "Desert Island", the first track off their hotly tipped upcoming Pharrell(!) exec-produced EP "Light Years". "Desert Island" is a definite step forward for the LA band, the melodies are sharper, the hooks tighter, the arrangements are more ...arrangier. We can't wait to hear more from the EP. MOTM.

The debut single "Two Rings" from the Ice Choir is officially released today in the UK/EUR through Yesboyicecream and in the US through Shelflife . Here's the official video for the track directed by Ryan Louie. Order here!

Errors have teased us with some great tracks from their new record and now they're doing it again with Earthscore . The difference is, this time they have a release date and an official title. Have Some Faith In Magic will be released on January 24th and it should be pretty spectacular. Earthscore I mentioned The Ice Choir before and that they'd put something out sooner or later... well, it appears that time is quickly approaching. [...]

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart/The Depreciation Guild's Kurt Feldman has started a new side-project, The Ice Choir , together with Raphael Radna (also from The Depreciation Guild), Patrick South and Avery Brooks . The new band has a clear 80s synth-pop sound, not too far from artists like Scritti Politti, and I must say that Feldman and Green Gartside has some vocal similarities... The pop-melodies on these songs are strong, and Kurt Feldman's vocals are - as always - a pleasure to listen to. [...]
