The latest single from Death's Cold Embrace may be his best yet. "The Complete and Utter Destruction of Everything" lives up to its title - it's a gloomy, gothic ballad that had me bobbing my head from the start, reminiscent of the early days of King Dude. An EP is coming soon! Grab the track here.
Chris released "50" back in May, but with everything happening in my life, I missed a lot of music announcements. On this particular single (which also comes in a shorter, radio-friendly version, as well as a slo-rev edit) DCE finds himself sliding into that neat litte niche that In Death It Ends left behind - blending gothic post-punk, witch house and darkwave. Very cool, but I must admit I'm not sold on the slower version, the original is much better.

Death's Cold Embrace is an Australian goth project from Chris Booker, who cut his teeth in several rock bands over the last two decades (Purveyors Of The Irregular, Bad To The Bone, Barry And The Beachcombers, to name a few). His latest solo venture embraces darkwave sounds and coats them in a syrupy witchhouse layer, giving the single "No Tomorrow" an edge familiar to fans of In Death It Ends or Mellow Grave. The package also comes with a slo+rev version. Support here.
