Alien Vampires return with double CD 'Return Me To Hell' including cover of Skinny Puppy's 'Assimilate'
Since 2003, Nysrok Infernalien and Nightstalker have been delivering aggressive dark EBM music under the moniker Alien Vampires, combining harsh distorted vocals and apocalyptic industrial dance. They are now back with their double-CD (21-track) album, titled “Return Me To Hell”. The album also features a cover of the classic Skinny Puppy track “Assimilate” in collaboration with Electhrone, featuring Attila Csihar (Mayhem), the late Joey Jordison (Slipknot) and Istvan Zilahy (Plasma Pool).
Alien Vampires has also invited the techno body act Chainreactor for a jam session on the track “Hyperbolic Doubt”, and the legendary alternative model and cage dancer Dani Devine lends her vocals to “Witchy Bitchy”.
The album is currently available for pre-order on Bandcamp and can be purchased as a 2CD set through the Alfa Matrix webstore. Additionally, there is a special pre-order offer that includes a combination pack with Darkness On Demand’s album “Digital Outcast”.
All other platforms will get a censored version of the cover artwork, you can see the subtle differences below.
When asked about the concept behind this album, the duo explains that it delves into the depths of despair, pain, and personal struggles, symbolizing a desire to confront and embrace one’s inner demons.
“Return Me To Hell” is presented as a deluxe double-CD digipak with an extended booklet and uncensored artwork design by the talented Anna Troedsson, featuring BDSM models Frostslavee and Cindy Rocketheart. Read the review of ‘Return Me To Hell’.
