Just in time for its 20th anniversary, Metropolis Records will be re-releasing the official debut album by Ego Likeness entitled “Dragonfly”, which was originally released under the band’s own label Angelfall.

Ego Likeness is an American darkwave/industrial rock band from Baltimore, Maryland. They were formed in 1999 by artist Steven Archer and writer Donna Lynch and started out as an experimental, dark, pseudo trip-hop project.

After the 1999 demo release “Songs From A Dead City”, the band recorded “Dragonfly” over a 9 month period in 2000. The material was definitely darker and more danceable than their demo. Upon its release it was pretty well-received by the Side-Line team and as such hasn’t aged at all.

The reissue will be released on January 17th via all digital and streaming formats.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
