Last month, the Helsinki Vampires The 69 Eyes released their 30-year-anniversary album “West End”, and immediately hit #1 in the Finnish charts. With plenty of tour dates in Europe and the USA at the horizon, the band is getting ready for the Halloween season and so should you - it’s time to let the witches burn!

Helsinki Vampires, The 69 Eyes, are proud to announce their Hell Has No Mercy 2020 U.S.Tour. Kicking off on January 15th at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn, the 24 date trek will make stops in Chicago, West Hollywood and Richmond before concluding at Reverb in Reading, PA on February 22nd.

Darkwave veterans Dperd are proud to reveal their beautifully emotive official video for “Alien”. Watch the video below.

The band is going to hit the scene again on September 27th, via My Kingdom Music, with their new album “Allein”, a wonderful journey of loss and introspection into the best Dark Gothic Wave tradition of bands like The Cure, Cranes, Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins.

The cover artwork was done by the label’s boss Francesco Palumbo.

For the first time in 19 years, Friday the 13th coincides with a full moon - what a perfect day for the masters of gothic rock, The 69 Eyes, to unleash their 30-year-anniversary album, “West End”.

After a spellbinding performance at The Cure’s Pasadena Daydream Festival this past weekend in LA, Chelsea Wolfe is just one week away from releasing her latest album “Birth of Violence”, via Sargent House, on September 13th.
 

Symphonic/Celtic vocalist Leah - described affectionately by her fans as “the metal Enya” - has launched a crowdfunding campaign for her upcoming winter-themed album, “Ancient Winter”. A variety of bundle packages are available for per-order here.
 

The spellbinding new album from Chelsea Wolfe is out in just under a month and today she has given us another glimpse of her more folk leaning sound. Her new single, “Be All Things” is an emotional journey and shows Wolfe at the top of her songwriting game.
 

The release of The 69 Eyes’ phenomenal 30-years-anniversary album is getting closer - on September 13th, Finland’s dark rockers are set to release their 12th offering, “West End”, via Nuclear Blast and have revealed another single today - the sinister rock hymn “Black Orchid”!
