Universal Monsters

The 69 Eyes

Polished Goth-n-Roll that pairs baritone vampire crooning with cinematic strings, Celtic flourishes, and a sleazy hard rock backbone.

It's like Dracula started a hard rock band and decided to write a soundtrack for a dark western.

A polished, nocturnal blend of romantic gloom and cinematic adventure.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The unexpected integration of Native American flute and Ennio Morricone-style strings during the epic sprawl of Blackbird Pie.
The shift into a bright, French-influenced new wave hook on Miss Pastis that breaks the album's prevailing gloom.
The Doors-inspired psychedelic mysticism that anchors the mid-tempo crawl of Jerusalem.
