German darkwave artist Mortes breathes new life into HIM’s cult classic “Join Me In Death”, wrapping the iconic track in his own veil of shadowed romance. Stripped of its early‑2000s sheen and reborn in a post‑punk and modern goth silhouette, the song emerges colder, deeper, and far more intimate — a hymn to love that refuses to bow even before the final breath.
Mortes does not simply cover the track; he recasts it as a vow murmured at the edge of oblivion. His version drifts like a slow descent into the beauty of surrender, where devotion becomes a quiet, trembling ritual and two souls choose unity even as the world dissolves into darkness.
The result is a fragile yet haunting confession — a reinterpretation where death is no longer an ending, but the ultimate act of togetherness.
Take his hand… and hold on when the lights finally go out. The previously released single, "Forever (Just Save Me)", featuring S!NCUBUS can be found over HERE. Link
