Background notes
Archive material and source history
Vaines formed in Melbourne around the duo of Chris Porpora and Kim Ptak, working with dream pop and shoegaze textures. Their debut album 'The Ghost of Electricity' came out in 2014, followed by 'Dusk in June' in 2016. They've since released 'Kingdom of Rust' and 'The Pains of Being Human Sometimes'.
Their songs like 'heaven' and 'Feelingdown' have a hazy, introspective quality that feels both personal and atmospheric. The music doesn't shout for attention but settles in the room like weather.
Porpora and Ptak share vocal duties while handling guitar, keyboards, and bass between them. They've kept at it quietly, putting out records every few years without much fanfare about where they're headed next.
