Psycho for Psychic TV

The first time I heard Psychic TV I was hanging out at a friend’s house absolutely out of my mind on acid and weed. It was 1989. I was maybe 16.

Someone had switched on a tape in the basement den and wandered off, and I — barely able to walk — stumbled in. What the hell was this music, I thought. How could a human being have made this?

Music Alert: The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse – Magisterium

Strap in for a long night with my electro-industrial band the Seven Whores of the Apocalypse as we guide you through the abandoned padded cells of Magisterium: a cage of bone-rattling beats wraps its claws around a rubbery analog bass and hushed vocals; a bewildering array of vintage synth arpeggios punctuate the atmosphere before the whole sacramental affair is catapulted to an 80s Berlin disco, where the area clergy finally break down and try on a pair of knee-highs spiked heels just to see what all the fuss is about. Includes a throbbing tech-house dub mix.

Magisterium is now available on YouTube, Bandcamp, and SoundCloud.

Enjoy, and happy Halloween 2021! 🎃

Music Alert: The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse – A Poison Mind

My darkwave band The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse are just pleased as punch to announce our new single, A Poison Mind, out today!

Desires fueled by rot… rabid nightmares… scorpion-filled thoughts… interminable self-loathing… A Poison Mind that desires release. Join the Seven Whores of the Apocalypse as they ride through the black light and exorcise the demons with a fusion of susurrant vocals, vaporous bass, and drums that echo throughout the catacombs.

Stream A Poison Mind our Bandcamp, SoundCloud and YouTube channels.

Music Alert: The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse – Pathological

My electro-industrial band The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse are just pleased as punch to announce our second single Pathological!

Our debut follow-up Pathological winds up a creeping carnival of vintage analog delights before exploding into a screaming frenzy of depravity and desperation. Strap on some black pleather and enjoy the show!

You can listen to both the original version and the extended dub mix on our BandCamp, SoundCloud and YouTube channels.

Enjoy!

Music Alert: The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse – Parasite

I’m delighted to announce that Parasite, the debut single of The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse, drops today!

Parasite is a love letter to late 80s electro-industrial dance music. Pulsating analog synths, breathy FX, hypnotic rhythms, and choral samples beckon you inside steamy nightclubs of the late Cold War era. Let the The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse buy you a drink!

You can hear Parasite on our SoundCloud or BandCamp pages.

The Seven Whores of the Apocalypse are Chris (The Creeping Man), Tom (Divider Line), and me (Jason Herrboldt). Please visit and support Chris and Tom on BandCamp! They make killer music.

Enjoy!
