lyrics

Twenty-one candles
In a dark room
A blue light flickers
To the beat of the music

Back on the slide
In a park
My imagination screams
To the beat of my heart
To the beat of my heart

A distant voice
Spreads through our bodies
It’s nothing really more
Than a whisper

But your voice is clear
Like the skin
I glide across
And then you turn and smile
Then you turn and smile

I found myself along the way
I found myself between then and now
I found myself along the way
I found myself between then and now

Twenty-one candles in a dark room
Twenty-one candles in a dark room

Cold

supported by 13 fans who also own “In A Dark Room...”

Can you believe that in the decade that saw second-wave and atmospheric black metal take shape, the iciest album of the times would come from sweltering Arizona (by way of Iowa)? The album is Cold, it looks cold, and it is bloody cold indeed. AJ

Strangers
by Grey Gallows

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023

New on Grimalkin, this EP from Phantómódel is an irresistible batch of gothy post-punk that is delightfully harrowing. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 16, 2019
