VVMPYRE<\/strong> begins 2023 having just released their new full-length LP, Neon Night Fright <\/strong><\/em>after a series of well-received singles.This long-awaited debut album brings together VVMPYRE<\/strong>\u2019s love for horror with gothic guitars and dance beats.

VVMPYRE<\/strong>\u2019s artistic journey has always been heavily influenced by horror. Many of the tracks like \u201cHe Will Always Be\u201d, \u201cNeon Night Fright\u201d, \u201cSurrender\u201d, and \u201cFreedom of Death” focus on themes of the vampyrism that appears in classic horror films that inspire VVMPYRE<\/strong>; The Vampire Lovers<\/strong><\/em> and Horror of Dracula<\/strong> for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The call of the vampire waiting to take another victim\u2019s blood while shrouded in love and lust is the common underlying theme to many of these tracks, and even makes more subtle tracks like \u201cAlone in the Woods\u201d much darker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, tracks like \u201cOffering\u201d and the opener, \u201cBlack Cube\u201d tap into the “cult horror” of this same era calling to films like The Omen<\/strong><\/em>, The Mephisto Waltz<\/strong><\/em>, and Suspiria<\/strong><\/em> in their lyrics as well as in the heavy strings and organs that aspire to the scores of composer Jerry Goldsmith. The combination of these influences make for a bloodthirsty collection of tracks with a haunting atmosphere throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, VVMPYRE<\/strong> is not afraid to diversify these sounds while keeping the core intact. The band takes a more EBM influence in \u201cBlack Cube\u201d, \u201cAtrocity\u201d and \u201cSurrender\u201d bringing in heavy guitars with massive solos; a contrast to \u201cHe Will Always Be\u201d which brings in more ethereal synths and guitars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neon Night Fright<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0is available on all major digital platforms including Bandcamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
