Angels Eyes

The prolific Alaskan goth duo, Cliff and Ivy, meld sounds inspired by the rugged textures of the Alaskan

wilderness they call home, balancing rock-fueled grit with theatrical flair and mystical lyricism. Their new ten-
track album, Angels Eyes, revisits classic goth rock while embracing deathrock, post-punk, and metal

elements, delivering vintage-leaning songs that still push forward with visceral energy. Angels Eyes is out
August 7, 2026 on the band’s own imprint, House of Extreme Darkness.
The album’s ten tracks traverse dark moods and influences while keeping relentless forward motion.
Steeped in vintage goth spirit, several songs could have emerged during the genre’s golden era. “The Raven
and the Wolf” and “Tidalwaves” feel like lost cult-film soundtrack gems from the late ’80s, while the political
surge of “Propaganda” and the piano-led grief of “The Healer” add real emotional depth. “Of Love and The
Rain” lifts guitars into soaring, otherworldly spaces, and “Kiss Of Death” delivers a deathrock anthem that
swallows the listener in its dark pageantry: “Everything born begins to decay.”
Chugging guitars, Ivy Silence’s commanding vocals, and lyrics steeped in shadow make Angels Eyes one of
2026’s standout goth- and death-rock releases. The duo brought in an impressive roster of collaborators for
the sessions, including guest drummer Tom Coyne (45 Grave, Kommunity FK), multi-instrumentalist Paul
Roessler (Nina Hagen Band, The Screamers), and mastering by Grammy nominee Maor Appelbaum.
