The Pleasure Majenta is a South Pacific experimental rock and roll outfit from Aotearoa (New Zealand).
Birthed by frontperson and guitarist Lawrence Fergus Goodwin in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland), late 2015 and relocated to Berlin, Germany in the summer of 2018.
Reinventing gothic cowboy chic with their 2019 offering, ‘Who Knows What’. Commonly known as ’The Pleasure’, they play a heavy blend of dark cowboy-esque song-writing and industrial pulsating rhythms, tip-toeing between beauty and chaos.
The project's latest release, 'Looming, the Spindle' [Dedstrange Records, 2022] shapes a terrifying and sublime mix of noise, broken electronics and guitar feedback that begs to remain untamed. ‘Looming, The Spindle‘ picks through the pieces of loss, grief, connection and paranoia. Throwing the pieces in the air just to see where they land, the record is an album trying to make sense of these themes.
Their live performance will have you tense and mesmerised. Turning the air thick like mud, they carry you to the edge of discomfort but you embrace it like a mother’s hug.
