“Before the Dusk Devoured Day” — Texas Darkwave Duo Nite Share Video for “Cries for Help” Ahead of US Tour

Texas darkwave trio Nite, led by twin brothers Myles and Kyle Mendes with drummer Phil Helms, has released a video for their single “Cries for Help” ahead of an extensive 2026 tour across North America and Europe. Active since 2013, the band recently gained significant traction through social media circulation and sold-out performances. The track exemplifies their refined approach to dark electronic pop, featuring spacious synths and Myles Mendes’s emotionally restrained vocals reminiscent of Talk Talk and Pet Shop Boys. Lyrically, “Cries for Help” explores emotional exhaustion within relationships where love becomes obligation, set to architecturally austere production. The self-directed black-and-white video reinforces themes of separation, depicting band members isolated in adjacent spaces despite proximity. Their touring schedule begins with Calgary’s Terminus Festival, followed by North American dates with Echos and a co-headlining West Coast run with Julien-K before concluding with Texas shows.
