New Music + Forgive My Absence
I’m actually going to start with the second half of my title. I haven’t posted in almost four months. Things have been really hectic since the start of Covid-19, as all of you know. In my case, I got a new job right as everything was shutting down. Lucky, right? I’ve been working a lot and the hours have been fairly steady, but the shifts aren’t very consistent. I’m tired more often than not, and I don’t do much on my days off. I guess this site just fell to the wayside. I would love to say that I’m back; however, I can’t promise that at the moment.
Now, for the important part of this post: NEW MUSIC!
Today, I woke up to a couple of songs from artists I adore (and have mentioned here frequently) — Third Realm and Aesthetic Perfection. The first is a collaboration between Vizion X and Third Realm, entitled “Joker,” while the second is Aesthetic Perfection’s ode to spooky season: a cover of “Pet Sematary,” originally by the Ramones. I will post the videos below.
I also wanted to take this opportunity to tell y’all about the new EP from my favorite Canadian duo, Strvngers. They have used their time in lockdown to record and the result is an EP that will drop December 15th. For a taste of what’s coming, keep an eye out for the first single/video, “Vita Brevis,” which will be released October 9th. And of course I will share it on my blog!
I hope this entry finds all of you well! Happy first day of Halloween! 🖤🧡
Die Krupps Shares Official Video For “Trigger Warning”
Die Kreatur Share Second Single + Video, “Kälter als der Tod”
I’ve been sold on Die Kreatur since I first heard of their existence, as Chris Harms and Dero Goi are two of my favorite front men. However, if I hadn’t been, “Kälter als der Tod” would have done it. I love the song, and as for the video… Well, how can you possibly go wrong with Chris and Dero as vampires?!?!
MissFit Toys Premiere Video For “Pacified Suicide”
Industrial metal band MissFit Toys shared their video for the track “Pacified Suicide” on Friday. Watch/listen below! (For fans of Psyclon Nine, Dawn of Ashes, Grendel, etc.)
