This week WIERD is proud to welcome Death Domain from Baltimore, MD in his NYC debut at the weekly party! Adam and his one man all-live-analogue electronic ice machine(who is also behind the likes of ‘SIDS’ - Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) joins the newest wave of east coast minimal synth bands springin up like frozen col wildfire before our eyes, joining the likes of recent WIERD performers Further Reductions, Silk Flowers, and N Antolik…Adam’s sound is as cryptically raw as it gets - summoning the seminal Industrial/EBM sounds of the likes of early Cabaret Voltaire, Skinny Puppy, and Human League, and as is the case with N Antolik, his unapologetically ‘American’ vox connote the great legends from the secret history of US minimal electronics such as Experimental Products, Mark Lane, Bugger West, John Bender, and Steve Fisk! See you in all in the WIERD…do you dare to get…VR???
