Department of Gloom is made up of four Sydney based musicians – including ex-members of Florida based industrial fetish freaks Genitorturers, Sydney heavy industrialists Jerk, and ‘90s glam metal punks Candy Harlots. And their sound is a potent mix of all these things.
On the live front, Department of Gloom have opened for everybody from Skid Row to Wednesday 13, while also sharing stages with local heavyweights Witchgrinder and Our Last Enemy, and doing their own shows around Australia, picking up quite a following of devotees in the process.
Today sees the band’s most ambitious and exciting video being released for the track Kill Someone, which also points to the direction Department of Gloom’s sound and style is developing.
The video will be launched with a free show at Sydney’s The Duke Hotel, Friday February 7.
