ACTORS - Acts of Worship

Released in 2021, Acts of Worship is the third full-length installment from Vancouver’s ACTORS. Following the massive success of It Will Come to You, the band—led by frontman and producer Jason Corbett—returned with a record that is "boldly cinematic and unapologetically catchy." While retaining their signature "post-punk drive," this album lean further into "neon-lit synth-pop" and "soulful, atmospheric textures," creating a sound that feels like a "high-speed drive through a rain-slicked city at midnight."

The vinyl edition of Acts of Worship is the definitive way to experience the album’s "pristine and punchy" production. From the electrifying opening of "Love-Letter" to the "driving, club-ready" pulse of "Only What You Fear," the LP format highlights the "layered synthesizer mastery" and "jagged guitar hooks" that have made ACTORS a global force in the alternative underground. It is a "soulful and realized" masterpiece that proves the band is capable of "shaping the very vocabulary" of 21st-century darkwave.
