Byronic Sex & Exile
Dead Blood Cells
Dead Blood Cells are an Industrial Darkwave band based in Chatham, UK. They have been ongoing since 2017, with a few line up changes, but now stable with Jason on electronics and Lilith Firechild, also of The InSect , on lead vocals . It is a marriage of hauntingly sweet dark vocals with industrial noise. They have appeared on Cleopatra Records Unquiet Grave 2020 compilation, Slava Ukraini ( a Darkwave/EBM Charity compilation in support of Ukraine) Described by one reviewer “They had a song that told you they are Industrial, but there was more than this mixed up in this cacophony stage presence. There was punk, experimental and something that vaguely reminded me of some of Fad Gadgets sound.”
EPK is available on deadbloodcells.com
Hurtsfall
Hurtsfall have a unique approach: with no guitars, keyboards and Bass VI build a rich soundscape as a foundation for Sam’sdistinctive theatrical delivery. Hurtsfall blend gothic rock, post-punk, and synth/pop, recalling the essence of your favourites with a fresh genre-spanning twist. Based in Nottingham, the ancestral home of Lord Byron, they share his penchant for gothic romantic verses.
I Am Immune
I Am Immune — formed by Pete Boyd (vocals, guitar) and Tim Clark (guitar) in the early 2000s — originally debuted as Faetal on Wasp Factory Recordings in 2005.
Their calculated fusion of glitchy electronics and alternative rock garnered attention across Britain and Europe during their 2002-2012 tenure. Now based between Lyon and Berlin, the duo returns to London with bassist Mae Smith, presenting fresh material alongside established works following their prolonged absence.
IAmImperfect
IAMIMPERFECT are based on the Northern England City of Sheffield and are Paul Jackson (Vocals, Synths and Programming) and Kelly Dorset (Guitars).
Aiming to do things differently after the ending of the Paul Venkman project, Paul threw it all away and began on a series of new tracks aiming for something less guitar based and more synth based. Things took a bit of a side step in 2022 when he asked Kelly, guitarist from The Way Of All Flesh to try contributing some guitar lines to the new tracks and suddenly there was a project ready to go.
Mid 2023 saw them getting into practice rooms to pull a live presence together and quickly lead to them opening the Saturday Night at The Ravenspurgh Online Goth Festival, then opening for Byronic Sex & Exile in Leeds on his Stage Fright Tour. Finally for 2023, an artist cancellation allowed the to open the Black Midwint3r festival in Sheffield, a booking which caused the day tickets to swiftly sell out.
2024 so far has seen the release of their first Single, “Static & Feeling”, alongside a single launch gig in their hometown of Sheffield which also sold out. More releases are building for the rest of 2024.
