ALIEN GOTHIC - Presents Debut Single

The USA-based dark electro-rock duo Alien Gothic presents its debut single, "In The Night", a song that stretches cosmic goth music into a whole new realm, combining all the elements the duo has been striving to integrate into the project in the four years since its inception.

With a classic goth rock backbone, "In The Night" sees darkwave smouldering at the surface, previewing Alien Gothic's High And Dry album, set for release on 18 August via Latenight Weeknight Records.

The video depicts their explorations as they look for a way out of this world. Mixing elements of AI, traditional film and lost portraits of the members, the song blends reality and fiction. A symphonic journey telling the tale of two unknown lifeforms, bringing their favourite sounds to a place they have never explored before; the music is inspired by the beauty of the world around them while still being pulled into the darkness of the dead stars they came from.


Made up of Ryan Policky (A Shoreline Dream) and Andy Uhrmacher (Genessier), Alien Gothic creates deep gothic electronica, fused with spacial goth autoharp symphonies, deep mellotron overtures mixed with noises from unknown origins on the vast hour-long debut. Themes and words recall events of the duo from the far reaches of the beyond. With deep beats, lush goth rock entwines with psych and shoegaze layers to create cosmic, pulsating melodies.

With the High And Dry album, recorded from 2020-2023, Alien Gothic takes a journey out of a world gone mad to spread a sound that is immersive and rich with varied instrumentation. Soundscaping goth is what these artists have become known for elsewhere along the milky way, their spectrums now hitting Earth to bring forth a dreary alien orchestra - lost deep in a dark forest beyond the normal stretches of human imagination.

"It's something we knew would destroy the seedy, cobweb filled danceclubs of the past, bringing forth a new era of goth... alien goth!" says Ryan Policky.
