Twice Dark’s "Necromantic": A Haunting Electro-Industrial Descent into the Underworld
From the shadowy corners of Bloomington’s underground music scene, Twice Dark emerges with "Necromantic," the fourth single from their upcoming album, Telekinetic. A gothic electro-industrial adventure dripping with sorrow and mystery, the track transports listeners right into a middle-of-the-night graveyard séance, where an apparition lures a man to the underworld. With guest vocals by Scott Harris of Hororhaus (Woodstock, NY), "Necromantic" is a grief-soaked anthem that merges the melancholic pull of darkwave with the heartbeat of commercial dance beats, a track designed to make you dance, cry, and give up to the night.
Opening with eerie, atmospheric synths and a brooding bassline, "Necromantic" units an ominous tone earlier than plunging into its hypnotic, mechanical heartbeat. The manufacturing, recorded at Postal Recording in Indianapolis in April 2024, is crisp and immersive, shooting the essence of unfashionable-futuristic goth club anthems while pushing into current sonic territory. Scott Harris’s ghostly visitor vocals add a further layer of melancholy, weaving seamlessly with the tune’s subject matters of loss, longing, and unfinished business.
"Necromantic" appears like a séance between classic Bauhaus and Sisters of Mercy, infused with the digital grit of Nine Inch Nails and Skinny Puppy. The pulsing synths and mechanized percussion keep the strength high, making it dancefloor-ready music while still soaking wet in an aura of gothic tragedy. The lyrics evoke pictures of moonlit cemeteries, spectral seduction, and the impossible-to-resist pull of the unknown, embodying the darker, more theatrical aspect of business music.
With "Necromantic," Twice Dark solidifies their place with a number of the new wave of goth-industrial artists, paying homage to the style’s forebears whilst carving out their very own hauntingly particular area.
