As 2024 comes to a close, we'd like to thank the amodelofcontrol.com site for including us in their top 50 albums of the year. We came in at a respectable #39. It seems to get harder every year to get press for our releases, so this means a lot to us!
Santa Sangre reviews The Darkness Forever
We’re not going to lie, it’s been tougher than every getting press to cover our latest release, so we’re happy to have a new review to post. Peter Marks reviews The Darkness Forever on the website Santa Sangre.
“Channeled layers which appear on these tracks wickedly end slipping back into an invisible reality; those enchanted themes just do not end from Statik and kaRIN, they’re connection only grows stronger never given up something I wish others would hold onto as well: imagination. Staying on such a path is not an easy option, thank you so much for refusing to give up!”

The Darkness Forever
We are very excited to announce that we have a brand new release called The Darkness Forever!! This new release marks album #14 for us!!!
It is a cover album! We know we have already done a cover album with These Eyes Before, but that was 15 years ago!!
For each song, we tried to channel the original artist, while giving it our own slant and energy. We love these songs, and we hope you will love them too!!!
The official release date is July 16th!!! All orders will ship on, or before that date. (Note: as of 7/09/24, it looks like physical orders will ship around 7/19/24, as our CDs are taking a bit longer than expected to get from our manfacturer.)
The first 250 physical orders will be signed, and come with a free signed poster (folded) and a signed card because we love you!
We are offering special T-shirt and CD Bundles. During the pre-sale, with each album sale (physical, or download), we will be sending you a code with your physical order, where you can download the files from Bandcamp, in whatever format(s) you desire. (MP3 V0, MP3 320, FLAC, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, ALAC, WAV, AIFF). Sample rates up to 96k.
We are also offering an Instrumental Download version as an option in some of the bundles.
For the T-shirts, we are only doing a very limited amount—so if you want one —now would be the time.
For any orders over $75, get free USPS First Class shipping, by using the Discount Code “FreeShip75”, during checkout. (You have to enter it after you enter your shipping information)

So, if our music is, or has ever been important to you, this is the way to let us know, and every bit helps. We even have a donation button if you want to go that way.
