WitchGang - a virtual band supergroup

The other trademarks registered to TRARMSA are unfamiliar:
https://uspto.report/company/Trarmsa-L-L-C

There's "Tremolo Music and Arts Festival" registered this summer. It was filed by Zia Modabber, so it could be related to Trent. I can't find anything for that name though, other than a Russian music festival (probably unrelated) and a Tremolo Festival in Seattle (also unrelated).

Then there's "RE/SKIN" which is something to do with downloadable digital music. That one was filed by an attorney, Isaac Fine, not previously associated with Trent. So, that's why I wonder if "MSA" is another person(s)?

I notice Memory Fade has now been added to this page, so guess they have more plans if still filing new trademarks?

That page is all the trademarks registered to Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross's joint holding company, so it's not necessarily related to WitchGang.

This trademark is registered in the goods categories of Clothing, namely, tops, tank tops, knit tops, shirts, short-sleeved t-shirts, long-sleeved t-shirts, blouses, shorts, dress shirts, coats, winter coats, vests, sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, hooded sweatshirts, jackets, blazers, jeans, skirts, dresses, pants and sweatpants; Footwear for men and women; Headwear, namely, hats, beanies and baseball caps; Athletic footwear, Fragrances and perfumery; Skin lotion; Scented body lotions and creams, Watches and jewelry, Backpacks; Handbags; Luggage; Suitcases; Duffel bags; Luggage straps; Messenger bags; Overnight bags; Shoulder bags; Travel bags; Wheeled tote bags.

So make of that what you will.

Timeless kind of sucks but Nothing's Alright is decent.

If it wasn't clear from my previous post, there's definitely more stuff in the works.

Timeless is being added to fortnite festival this week. People on the fortnite sub reddit are shitting on it even though I think it’s quite a cool song.

yippeeee

I don't hate this.

Update: that riff sounds really familiar.

To me it sounds very similar to the intro they do for live

Yeah, to my ear a mix of that and Sunspots.

Reminds me of Echoplex, but I don't think the melody is reused here from anything.

Best of the 3 certainly. Much more of a NIN feel to it. Can't believe this first broke 4 months ago and today's the first I've heard about it....

Not too shabby. Doesn't sound as generic as the other two tracks. Gives me slight TV On The Radio vibes (makes sense with Dave Sitek involved). That bassline is pretty nice. Also, does that artwork give anyone else Lost Highway feels?

EDIT: I don't know why, but the opening guitar feels like a slowed down version of this:

Too bad the whole fictional band thing fell through.

Too bad the whole fictional band thing fell through.

What?

[allegate]

I was wondering as well but I eventually got to where they must mean it's not fictional since song credits are being released. So instead of "who could it be?" we know. that said, it's easy enough to pretend - much like with an alt-reality ARG - that they're still anon.

I hope the new stuff gets to Bandcamp. Note that as of this morning it was not so looking at future releases.

[DVYDRNS]

they should have led with that one...

[Wulgaren]

this always reminded me of Milli Vanilli type deal lol - the artists don’t make the music they just promote it with their appearances, but swap real people with AI

[Merriweather]

On Qobuz, the first 2 singles are attributed to "Witchgang Records" but the new single is listed under just "Witchgang." I wonder if that means the group has been picked up by a big label, because that usually seems to be the reason artists stop putting music on Bandcamp.

yippeeee

These credits are incorrect/incomplete... for a kickoff, Stephen Marcussen is a mastering engineer, Serban Ghenea is a mix engineer, and Jacob Moreno is a recording engineer; they're not performers.

[TheBang]

The credits are listed correctly on Qobuz (press the 'i' information button next to "Buy Track"):

How did I miss this!? Really enjoying what I've heard so far. Nothing's Alright is a banger - sounds like they took some hyper pop inspiration from 100gecs.
