dreamgoth's latest

g0dless

g0dless is the insufferable, painfully distorted, follow up to dreamgoth's last release 'h0ly g0d' - a continuation of the exploration of hardcore and experimentalism. Inspired by feelings of anxiety and rejection, dreamgoth traverses the intersection of rhythm and noise.

h0ly g0d

(01/01/22)

h0ly g0d is a squeaky, horrible, terrible collection of aggravated undulating bass, peppered with rhythmic noise, squeals, and squawks.
h0ly g0d brings dreamgoth's ambition to destroy dance music to a closer realization than ever before, rumbling and tumbling its way through 15 minutes of shear unwithheld clipped-to-shit chaos.
h0ly g0d is dreamgoth's snarky fairwell to 2021, spitting at it, stomping on it, and leaving the anger and pain of it behind,, into what dreamgoth hopes will be a better year for us all . . .

swamped with inspiration from the sounds on the forefront of uptempo hardcore, dreamgoth births a writhing experimental mess disguised as a classical suite. committing to both the bit and the reality that anxiety inducing experimental music can be treated with the grace and formality of classical music - and can be equally viewed as beautiful in its detailed complexity.

this absolute quirky jokester of a bard harnesses the utter extremities of gabber and hard dance, twisted with textural ambience, longform grain stretching, squeaks, squeals, and the Drama of It All.

damien grey

(06/01/21)

Unlike dreamgoth’s mostly electronic releases, their ep damien grey takes a step in a different direction that has long been the quieter part of Marshal’s many projects. Named after the alias Marshal originally planned to release this music under, damien grey is a journey of swirling guitars, washes of vocal layers, and psychedelic soundscapes. Taking inspiration from Marshal’s love for dreampop and shoegaze, and a lifelong unadmitted desire to make pop music, the EP is truly the first of its kind in dreamgoth’s official catalog. Recorded initially in their home studio, they took it to the next level with Matt Parmenter at the Ice Cream Factory Studio re-recording vocals, guitars, and laying down the final mixes of the songs. Damien grey features performances by Jasamine White-Gluz of shoegaze legends No Joy, bonus material with Jonathan Gomez as Mountain Body, as well as an interlude written and recorded by the magical Andrea Cortez.

Dropping July 1st, damien grey digresses a bit from dreamgoth’s typical formulas, venturing into the pop realm with some subtle new wave production elements, but where Depeche Mode “Just Can’t Get Enough”, dreamgoth doles out dreariness on “cant wait to die”!

"Ur new song sounds dope. It kinda reminds me of this band called Beach house."
