A glimmeringly dark new wave song was released by one-man gothic rock artist The Sweet Kill. His latest is ‘Undead’, The Sweet Kill has created a sound for those that admire The Slow Show and IST IST. On ‘Undead’ he ponders the dark world of the occult he explored in California, including forests, warehouses, and graveyards… Of course. The song illustrates the struggle of an immortal in love with his mortal girlfriend who’s sick.
A story that made me think of Dracula and a vibe a la the Frankenstein-monster, the song being an overwhelmingly confident, dark and charming soundscape that due to being different scares some and attracts others. ‘Undead’ is the perfect mix of 80’s cold wave synths, post punk instrumentation and cinematic vocals. The enchanting song and its hazy darkness transform throughout the track into an addictive soundscape that ends too soon… We are transfixed and are looking forward to the release of the album on which ‘Undead’ will appear!
