Dancing Plague makes broodingly intense and emotional dark electronic music. On their fifth studio album, Elogium (released March 2024 on Avant! Records), the solo project explores themes of loss, regret, rebirth, and growth coupled with throbbing baselines, rave synths, and pounding drums along with their distinct emotional crooning vocals in a crushing blend of ebm, industrial, and darkwave.
Dancing Plague balances aggressive waves of electronics with enough pop sensibilities and catchy hooks to be inviting to those new to the genre. For fans of classic icons such as Depeche Mode, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, as well as contemporary torchbearers Cold Cave and Kontravoid.
