Their most recent release, GREYAREA, is an androgynous sound of transition, interpolating darkly shimmering layers of angular guitar and pulsating touches of EBM, sharpening their unabashed anthemic rush with a maturing melodic complexity and atmosphere as much informed by post-punk as sweeping electronica. Still, as in records past, the twin pantheons of synthpop and classic VG music are invoked —not as tribute or pastiche, instead fleetingly familiar textures interwoven in a fashion as singular and cooly assured as mastermind
Vincent Segretario’s voice, which propels the EP— crying out loud and whispering the words to poems you never sent. Alongside Segretario, Hannah Avalon moves from live member to creative collaborator, contributing to the ethereal come up of “Glass" and the ecstatic lullaby of closer “Wading." The two have worked together in both anarcho-punk bands and musical theater productions, and somehow this wildly divergent history finds triumphant amalgamation in GREYAREA. This is the soundtrack to an impossible John Hughes movie where all the kids wear black lipstick and dance to the end of the world and everyone kisses and all hearts break when the credits roll.
Recently, WINGTIPS has had the pleasure of supporting artists such as THE TWILIGHT SAD (during US Tour with The Cure), PALE DīAN, JACK LADDER & THE DREAMLANDERS, and SOFT KILL to name a few.

I own several types of Wing Tips and Brogues. they are indeed the MOST versatile shoe in an well dressed man's wardrobe. And you can stretch out by adding colors to the Wing Tips to broaden the combinations. Great introductory video without getting all hung up in the history or brand pushing.

As a 58 year old, I've never gave much thought to the impact of a stylish pair of shoes. Your advice is appreciated. I have found that nice pair of shoes can really elevate business casual to another level. People have actually commented on my shoes.

Nice!

Thank you for the awesome and informative video. After a few months of wearing brown leather wholecut oxfords I'm finally picking up a pair of brogue wingtips. Their versatility and informality should better suit my lifestyle. Thank you for being my one-stop-shop for men dress wear and application. #Salute.

Salute John Henry! Enjoy the wingtips

Great video, O.G.! Even though this pretty much comes naturally to my jeans day look, it was a great refresher and gave me some ideas for wing tip combos I hadn't thought of or used yet.
Thanks.!

You got it Mark !

I got some gray trousers and dark denim’s. I can’t wait to flex them after this quarantine on corona is over OG. Thanks again for your stylish tips. I have been using my time wisely while we are on lockdown. I have learned so much about men’s fashion and style. I’ve also shopped quite a bit online.

👏👏👏 Great tips! I've never thought about wearing wingtips in this way. I usually wear them with light colored suits. I may have to try some of these looks very soon.

They are easily the most versatile dress shoe to me! Always great to hear from you Derrick!
