Freak Wave is a record label and part of the Schubert Music Group. The label has a spotlight on post-punk from the U.S. and Canada with featured artists such as Traitrs or Creux Lies.
The post-punk era has giving rise to some of the most innovative artists and landscapes of sounds. Dark electronic music with synth structures and dynamic vocals meets new wave with influences of the 80s and bittersweet melodic hymnes. Over all we find a pinch of punkrock and a DIY attitude. Freak Wave presents the post-punk scene with avantgarde musicians who boldly shows experimental and innovative music.
The label is run by Eric Burton and has already released albums like Goodbye Divine by Creux Lies and Horses in the Abattoir by Traitrs.
