Continuing to meld 1980’s Electronica with aggressive guitars and dark, cinematic atmospheres, the band delve into intimate relationships and leave no heart-tugging avenue unexplored. Produced by guitar duo Rainbow and Michael Falcore, Under Your Spell is an eleven-song collection that is emotionally tumultuous, poetically downcast, and beautifully haunting. Now, with their seventh, full-length studio album, Under Your Spell, The Birthday Massacre – Chibi (Vocals), Michael Falcore (Guitars), Rainbow (Guitars), Nate Manor (Bass), Owen (Keyboards), and Rhim (Drums) – have enlisted their dedicated fans for help with the making of the album via a PledgeMusic campaign. Call them Synthpop, New Wave, Dark Wave, or simply Gothic Rock, but do not miss The Birthday Massacre! ![]() Two-thousand and twelve’s Hide and Seek and 2014’s Superstition would cement the fact that The Birthday Massacre are a vibrantly unique gem in a sea of flawed copies.
