New York duo Heavy Halo will join My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult on the second leg of the “Delicate Terror Tour,” which starts on March 25, 2026 in San Francisco and ends on April 18, 2026 in Los Angeles. Note that the official tour announcement also lists Light Asylum, Die Sexual, and Devora on the run.

Heavy Halo’s Gosteffects says: “My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult was the very first concert I went to, as a kid in Oklahoma, inspiring me to set out on a lifelong artistic journey, from throwing illegal raves in Oklahoma City to producing hundreds of artists in NYC.”

McKeever from his side add: “The film, The Crow, which featured My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult in an unforgettable performance scene, imprinted TKK’s stamp on my psyche, becoming key sonic and visual influences for Heavy Halo. It is a full circle moment for us.”

The duo’s most recent release is the “Godspell (Heavy Halo Remix),” a remix they did for Andy Bell.

About Heavy Halo

Heavy Halo is the New York City duo of McKeever and Gosteffects. McKeever studied composition at Columbia University, while Gosteffects was active in techno and rave production before regrouping in New York during the pandemic to complete the material for their debut. “Black Seed” was released on August 13, 2021, followed by “Crush” in September 2021 and “Control You” on October 1, 2021. The original 10-track version of the self-titled album “Heavy Halo” was released digitally on November 5, 2021 through Negative Gain Productions.

On August 5, 2022, Negative Gain issued a deluxe CD edition of “Heavy Halo” with the 10 album tracks and eight remixes, while “Crushed / Destroyed” appeared as an eight-track remix album the same day. Heavy Halo then returned with “The Poisoning” in January 2024, “Damage Me (feat. Georgi)” on November 3, 2024, and “Erase Yr Fate” on November 25, 2024.

After signing with Silent Pendulum, the duo rolled out “Justified” on February 4, 2025, “New Blood” on March 4, “Failure.” on April 4, “Final Fall” on May 16, “Bloodrush” on June 16, and the Light Asylum collaboration “Die Cast Down” on July 17. The 10-track album “Damaged Dream” followed on July 25, 2025, with “Lies” and “Lost in Heaven” later pushed as video-led tracks.

Their latest release is the Andy Bell rework “Godspell (Heavy Halo Remix)”, issued ahead of their spring 2026 run with My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
