Plague Garden is a four piece goth rock band from Denver, Colorado established in 2019. Their style ranges from post punk to deathrock and everything in between. Their influences are more traditional in the vein of Bauhaus, Joy Division and Sisters of Mercy.

Guilty Strangers Los Angeles based post-punk fueled by the love of deathrock, no wave, and other art punk noise. At times soft and dark, with spidery blasts of guitar fury punctuating the rhythmic backbone of bass and drums, alternately haunting and powerfully angry vocals all throughout.

Licorice Chamber is a Tacoma/Seattle-based dark post-punk project led by vocalist and songwriter Layla Reyna. Blending shadowy melodies with cinematic atmospheres, the band creates an evocative world where post-punk edge meets cinematic elegance. With the recent addition of a live drummer, their sound has evolved into a more visceral and dynamic experience—balancing haunting synth textures with driving rhythms that command the stage. Licorice Chamber continues to carve out a unique space in the Pacific Northwest’s dark alternative scene.

Ghosts in the Graveyard blends Deathrock, Goth, Darkwave, and Alt Rock into a theatrical, horror-fueled sound that celebrates the eerie thrill of Halloween all year long! Their upcoming album, MONSTERS FOR THE MASSES: RESURRECTED, is a fully rebuilt and remastered reimagining of their 2016 debut, arriving this fall via Re:Mission Entertainment. Louder, darker, and more haunting than ever before!
