Goth Rock Band Explores Textures Across New Wave, Metal, and Classic Rock in Their 20+ Year-Long Career
“I wanted to put this album together with songs spanning the band’s career that showcase the diversity of writing and also give a new breath of life with remastering. I feel we picked the best of the best to give fans a collective of what Sister Kill Cycle truly is.”
-Raven Chain, vocalist, Sister Kill Cyc
Best described as goth-rock, Sister Kill Cycle combines hard rock and metal textures to create “songs to cope with the decline of society..” Their newest album “Blood. Money. Death” will feature a compilation of all their previously released music and will be followed by a full-length album in late 2024.
Formed in 2001 with members of Raven Chain’s first band INRI-1991, SKC gained attention by releasing a demo in late 2001, and soon began opening for many national acts including FILTER, Sevendust, Mushroomhead, and Nonpoint. Since then, the group has played industry showcases at NAMM and SXSW, as well as earning the title of “Best Hard Rock Artist” at the First Annual Hard Music Awards, a Florida-wide competition.
Often compared to a more diverse Marilyn Manson for their look and electric live shows, Sister Kill Cycle draws from various genres from rock and metal to folk, country, and even symphonic and gospel. With vast influences ranging from DEVO, Black Sabbath, Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, and Lacrimosa, Sister Kill Cycle creates a truly diverse sound that would be suited for a film like Mad Max, with its powerfully chaotic and dark nature.
Blood. Money. Death, promises to bring the “best of the best” with newly remastered versions of fan favorites such as the 2023 release “Cancel Kulture” and “Blood Pact”. Sister Kill Cycle plans to follow this release with upcoming shows, including one on April 27 with October Noir and ALICE in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida.
| About Sister Kill Cycle With influences ranging from Alice Cooper, Devin Townsend, Trent Reznor, Hans Zimmer, Rick Wakeman, Neurotech, Randy Rhoads, to Frank Zappa, Sister Kill Cycle combines textures from many genres to create nontraditional of mainstream goth and metal music, such as the use of the keytar with an industrial sensibility. Guitarist Mykill Mayhem incorporates heavier textures and stylings from his roots in extreme and industrial metal. Raven Chain as a songwriter adds powerhouse lyrics in their simplicity to take SKC’s music to a whole other level in their recordings, as well as their live performances. Their unique sound is matched with an unforgettable stage presence, often compared to Marilyn Manson for their over-the-top aesthetic, and SKC has been captivating audiences since they formed in 2001. Sharing stages with some of the biggest names in rock, such as FILTER, Sevendust, Mushroomhead, and Nonpoint, and performing at countless festivals across the country such as Locobazooka Gothstock, and Spooky Empire/Screamfest, SKC has gained notoriety as one of the best modern goth rock bands of this generation. SKC is ready to share the entirety of their music with the world with their Blood. Money. Death album – which will be released out now!
