Canadian group The Birthday Massacre has become one of the most popular scene-related bands of the past decade with an energetic mix of Eighties-Electronica, aggressive walls of guitar riffs and catchy, cinematic melodies, coupled with a mesmerizing visual concept and a sweeping live presence.
On the band’s new EP "Imaginary Monsters", teenage angst, daily horrors and the proverbial monsters under your bed are being funnelled into three irresistible, new Alternative-Pop-epics walking the tightrope between Gothic, Metal and New Wave.
Tracklist :
01. Forever
02. Burn Away
03. Left Behind
04. Pale (Kevvy Mental & Dave Ogilvie "Rubber Unicorn" Mix)
05. Control (Tweaker Mix)
06. Shallow Grave (Combichrist "Good For Her" Mix)
07. Pins And Needles (Skold Mix)
08. Shallow Grave (Assemblage 23 Mix)
As a special bonus, the EP also contains a data track with a HD-resolution version of the elaborate clip for "In The Dark." Back through the rabbit hole – one Canada’s most exciting music exports returns!
