Hidden Gems & Guilty Pleasures: The Necromancers Union (Canada)

The Necromancers Union (Goth Rock / Post Punk, Canada)

Billy Idol and Glenn Danzig meet The Sisters Of Mercy in a barfight. 80’s styled Doom Rock!

The Necromancers Union was founded when Glass Apple Bonzai member Daniel Belasco felt the need to create a different kind of art. His passion for horror movies, 80’s goth rock and new school post-punk were the main inspirations for this new project. Daniel recorded two EP’s and released them digitally in late 2019.

Musically and lyrically the songs could easily be a soundtrack for a Quentin Tarantino movie or feature heavily in the renowned Castlevania series.

Early 2020 Petrichor took notice of these EP’s and decided to approach Daniel for a future cooperation. Both EP’s were re-recorded and an extra track was added to give the album 8 full tracks of music. This process took quite some time so when everything was finished it was already mid-2020.
