Dark electronic act Virgin Vampires unveil their next single and video “The Silent Witness” following the release of their self-titled debut album, which was released on 16th September via The Circle Music and Marian Whores.

Born in 2023 from the minds behind Pink Panther Project, it was the first music collaboration between Ether, Alex and Uela. While initial collaborations between the trio 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.

The band said:

“We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this album and we’re excited to be sharing the final single with you all ahead of the album’s release. As you’ll hear, we wanted to push the boundaries of gothic and EBM genres and explore new sonic territories. For us, this isn’t just another album; it’s a testament to respecting tradition while pushing the boundaries of modern music. This is just the beginning of our journey, and we’re excited to see where it takes us.”
