The Mescaline Babies – Crush (2012)

The Mescaline Babies begannen 2009, durch Deathrock der letzten Jahre (Scarlet’s Remains und Christ vs. Warhol) aber auch von Ikonen wie Christian Death und Bauhaus inspiriert, ihre musikalische Kariere. Mit all diesen EInflüssen entstand „Crush“. Ein Album welches Deathrock mit anderen Genres wie Goth- & Alternative-Rock verschmelzen läßt. Pulsierende Basslines, mit Effekten belegte Gitarren, kraftvollem Gesang und flotten Drums reicht die Bandbreite von Post-Punk bis dunklen Goth-Baladen. Songs die von sozialen Problemen, Liebe, Surrealismus & der Apokalypse handeln.
