Cutouts

Alex MacKay (Nation of Language) releases the debut LP Snakeskin from his project Cutouts. With a focus on the sinister and sardonic edges of Psychedelic Darkwave, the world of Cutouts keeps equal footing within the spheres of indie, industrial and electronic to create a world entirely its own.

Following the release of singles ‘Cowgirl’ (feat. Tomberlin), ‘Narc', and ‘Paw of the Monkey' the latest single ‘Bloodsucker’ arrives as a laidback take on a vampiric lifestyle.

Having initially started the project just prior to joining NoL, Snakeskin will be the first full-length offering from MacKay. While he himself often serves as an in-demand producer in the indie world, most recently having worked on CHAI’s self-titled LP (Sub Pop), MacKay teamed up with Abe Seiferth (producer behind NOL’s debut LP) to to co-produce and mix much of Snakeskin and add an extra set of studio sensibilities on the final product.
