Alberta-based Deathrock band Pøltergeist have signed with independent music label Bad Omen Records (Watch Hazel, Satan’s Satyrs). The Canadian trio will release their debut LP, Nachtmusik, on October 25th, 2024. Described as a mix of Post-Punk, traditional Metal, and Shoegaze, theband have released new track “Ethereal Nightmare”, with an accompanying video, created by Jamie Ward.

Front person Kalen Baker says:

I consider us first and foremost a Post-Punk band, but heavy metal will always play an important role. When I got really into Goth Rock, one thing I noticed was that it was just as cold and bleak as black metal but in a different way.

For those new to Pøltergeist‘s sound, Baker has created a Spotify playlist highlighting “the various musical and artistic influences of Poltergeist”. You can listen now at this location.
