About The Newlydeads:

A pulsing rhythm arises from the underground with a twisted sensuality. Taime's dark musical vision comes to life as The Newlydeads' creation, Black and Shiny. The Newlydeads bridge the chasm between two conventions, combining the sinister elements of industrial with the sultry wail of rock. They create a unique brand of heavy that is frightenly fresh.

Assaultive guitar licks and a driving beat will either jolt you from your seat or spin you into a hypnotic trance. The Newlydeads have utilized computer-enhanced samples and effects to produce a rock record that is accessible and without clutter. The broodingly sexual and apocalyptic lyrics paint a nightmarish landscape. The Newlydeads captivate with penetrating rhythms that cling, as in "Night of the Living Dead", "Sleeping Pill", and the resurrection of Siouxsie and the Banshees', "Cities in Dust".

Cloaked in black garb, faces pale, The Newlydeads immerse themselves in a sado-sexual and shadowy realm. Taime, (formerly of Faster Pussycat / Pigface), leads the band with his gothic vocals and sordid lyrics--co-founded by Toddity on vocals and guitar. Dish, Xristian, and Danny (formerly from NY Loose / The Throbs), join Taime to form The Newlydeads.
