Track listing:
COUM – Live Version
Lightning Bolt – Live Version

Death in Vegas return with a new 12” featuring two live tracks, both recorded at EartH Theatre in London.

On the A side is COUM, a laconic, sexy, dark wave track born out of a recording session for Black Acid, Richard Fearless’ New York psyche project, at Keyclub recording studio in Michigan. Fearless always felt that it belonged to the Death in Vegas camp, and he released a reworked version on DIV’s Trans Love Energies. Here, atmospheric, reversed synths drive the Linn drum beat, while new DIV collaborator Surgeon’s Girl’s ethereal synths float in and out sealing the magic.
On the reverse, Death in Vegas summon the dead with a stunning ambient version of Lightning Bolt, another song off Trans-Love Energies, and one that catches Death in Vegas at their most fragile

Both songs were recorded live in 2025 at EartH Theatre in Dalston, London by Jamie Harley and later mixed by Nick Powell.

Death Mask

Death In Vegas return with new album ‘Death Mask’, where disintegration, overload and total sonic immersion tell a personal tale. With dirty circuitry and rough-hewn textures at the fore, this is gritty, unpolished techno; an audio outlier that’s full of personality, and a bold artistic statement. It’s closer in DNA to the grainy growl of sunn O))), or the searing intensity of Underground Resistance at their fiercest, and as far from generic influencer business as you could possibly get.

“I’ve been soaking in Ramleh’s ‘Hole In the Heart’, the machine funk of Terrence Dixon’s Population One, Jamal Moss’ psychedelic techno jams, the stunning minimalism of Mika Vanio’s Ø and Panasonic, the layered drones of LOOP, and drowning in the acid of TM 404”

Broader inspirations are weaved into the album’s fabric too; from his Thameside Metal Box studio and evocations of nautical ghosts, to lamentations for a broken world, to memories of a youthful Detroit pilgrimage, and the innocent fraternity of rave euphoria, there’s a lot going on, acting as a chronicle of moments, and locations.

1 Your Love

On June 6^th Death In Vegas return with new album ‘Death Mask’, where disintegration, overload and total sonic immersion tell a personal tale. 

A moment of intimacy and healing resolution on the album is its pivotal arc – ‘Your Love’ – where Fearless finds solace in the care from his partner, whose whispered vocals glide over nerve-tingling synths, which radiate an icy rapture, like stepping out of a rave at 6am, cold, frazzled, but beatific, still glowing in ecstasy.
