BLARE is delighted to bring you the exclusive video premiere of “The Strange House” by Virgin Vampires.
Born in 2023 from the minds behind Pink Panther Project, Virgin Vampires quickly established itself as more than just a side project. While initial collaborations between Ether, Alex, and Uela yielded promising results, Uela’s true voice shone through in a darker, more electronic direction – a stark departure from the band’s initial vision. With renewed focus on Pink Panther Project, Virgin Vampires returned to its roots, crafting powerful demos centered on male vocals.
This creative detour led to a prolific year and a half, with both bands recording a staggering 32 songs across two albums, scheduled for release in September 2024. Drawing inspiration from their gothic moniker, Virgin Vampires’ lyrics paint a vivid picture – a lamentation on mortality and indulgence, all wrapped in striking visuals. Their sound masterfully blends gothic influences with modern electronics, and their vocal approach is refreshingly “rock” – a stark contrast to the monotony plaguing the genre. Comparisons to She Wants Revenge and similar acts are apt, with standout tracks like “The Strange House”, “Butterfly on the Moon”, and the self-titled Virgin Vampires poised to become instant classics.
This isn’t just another album; it’s a masterpiece, a testament to respecting tradition while pushing the boundaries of modern music. While live performances are currently on hold, Virgin Vampires and Pink Panther Project are conjuring up a collaborative DJ set, with their first hauntings planned for Germany this winter. Prepare for a night unlike any other.
Virgin Vampires album was released on September 16, 2024, via The Circle Music and Marian Whores, and is available for purchase here.
