We are an engaging and theatrical female-fronted Horror Punk / New Wave, Metal and Deathrock band from New Orleans! Inspired by the mysterious Tomb of Nicolas Cage that now sits in historic St. Louis #1, we began to wonder if there were secrets behind this mysterious pyramid, and began to speculate on its strange origin. This led us down a path we never expected - filled with conspiracy theories, horror and secret societies as old as time itself. Started by Melissa (Kym Trailz) as a musical scoring project for a local short horror film, the band grew quickly into a fully realized concept. In our short year together, we have begun travelling the convention and dark music festival circuit (Nola Time Fest, Creepy Fest, and Convergence XXII -where we held court over the worlds first live band GOTHIC karaoke- to just name a few.) we have been noticed by media outlets both locally and overseas, performed a secret, elite show and ritual with the almighty Chewbaccus marching krewe and have continued our pursuit of the mysterious Illuminati, hoping to draw them into the public eye with our sonic lures. Our stage show and concept are one of a kind. Combining post-punk, punk, new wave and even metal elements, we hope to present a new sound to the horror community. In the short time since our inception we have released a four song E.P. and a second split EP with Jason and the Kreugers celebrating “The Howling” franchise. We are working on a full-length vinyl entitled “The Pharaoh of New Orleans” (due out this year) and have officially released a cover single of The Ramones’ “Pet Sematary.” We are beginning to book tour dates for 2017, filming short episodes about our fight against the supernatural and a brand new video from the upcoming album for our song, “THEY LIVE!” We are also sending out advance copies of our first guitar heavy dance track, “R’lyeh.” at the end of August to DJs, press and radio exclusively. Finally, we are very pleased to introduce the newest members of our team, Guitarist Taylor Suarez and Drummer Edward Joubert. Taylor and Sean toured Cuba with a horror metal act in 2012 for the annual Brutal Fest and Edward is an accomplished veteran of the music scene in New Orleans and is a very welcome addition as one of the most knowledgeable encyclopedias of horror fandom and conspiracy we have ever met. Joining with Vocalist Melissa Crory (AKA Kym Trailz), Bassist Sean Mooney, and Guitarist Aaron Maguire we have a project that is as varied as it is driven. We can’t wait to share and grow with the horror community. You will be seeing lots of us in the future!
