The Spoiled - When it Rains

The Spoiled is an Italian post-punk project by Giovanni Santolla, crafting atmospheric soundscapes through electronic beats, distorted synths, and reverb-laden guitars. After establishing themselves with the 2024 EP Time and 2025's critically acclaimed Living Ghosts, the project returns with When It Rains on Avant! Records. This new album marks an evolution, deepening The Spoiled's exploration of intimate human connection through lush, romantic production. Blending post-punk foundations with indie rock and electrogaze textures, When It Rains balances warmth and melancholy while honoring genre pioneers like Clan of Xymox, The Sound, and Pink Turns Blue. Giovanni's relentless European touring and collaborations with acts like Darkways and This Eternal Decay have sharpened the project's live presence. When It Rains expands emotional range without sacrificing the introspective, atmospheric depth that defines The Spoiled's signature sound. For fans of Twin Tribes, She Past Away, and The Soft Moon.
