The enigmatic gothic rock duo based in Alaska (USA), Cliff And Ivy, has ignited the cosmos with their new album, Sinister Stars, which will hit the stores in a couple of days, exactly this Friday 4 October via House Of Extreme Darkness. Their sound is a fusion of punk, goth, industrial and deathrock, with echoes of experimental noise, art, poetry, old-school hardcore, and EBM. Imagine a blend of traditional goth vibes, punk attitude, horror movie aesthetics, and industrial grit.
Sinister Stars features collaborations with some renowned musicians and producers. Cliff And Ivy collaborated with producer and synth guru Paul Roessler, Martin Atkins (Public Image Limited, Killing Joke, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails and Pigface), Jim Babjak (The Smithereens), Tom Coyne (45 Grave), Brian Troisi, Matt Thomas and Kurt Reil (The Gripweeds).
Known for infusing their music with theatrical and poetic flair, Cliff And Ivy created Sinister Stars as an album for our current world, delving into themes like the passion for creativity, love's redemption, magic, death, breaking loose from oppression, and being free. Sinister Stars is a sonic journey that defies conventions and resonates with listeners who crave darkness and intensity. Cliff And Ivy's signature blend of brooding guitar and dark female vocals creates an otherworldly experience for their devoted fans. Link
