Dance With the Dead: Justin Pointer and Tony Kim.
The duo of Tony Kim and Justin Pointer create a horror-themed mix of electronic music and metal guitars in Dance with the Dead. Visit a skeleton rave in the video for "Hex," from the new album Driven to Madness, released in January. Also on the bill: the cloaked-and-masked Idaho trio Magic Sword; and the gothy synth pop of Montreal-based Das Mörtal.
media release: Electronic music duo DANCE WITH THE DEAD have unveiled the news of their upcoming sixth studio album. The new LP, 'Driven To Madness', will see a January 10th, 2022 release. To give fans their first taste of the new record, DWTD has released a new music video for the first single, titled "Sledge", which can be found on YouTube.
Teasing what fans can expect from their new studio album and future touring, DWTD comment, “Driven to Madness is our most intense record to date and it will take you for one hell of a ride. We’re really excited to play some of the new material for the first time on our upcoming tour in 2022.”
DANCE WITH THE DEAD is an electronic-based music duo by Justin Pointer and Tony Kim. Inspired by retrospective movies and music from the ’60s, ’70s, and '80s, their sound reflects heavily on analog synthesizer sounds and early heavy metal guitars. They released their debut record “Out of Body” on October 31st, 2013 to great reviews in the synth, metal, and EDM communities alike. As of late 2019, the duo has toured alongside acts such as Devin Townsend, Avatar, and Dragonforce as well as headlined shows in the USA, Canada, France, Belgium, Germany, Iceland, Russia, Belarus, Riga, Talin, Scotland, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands, Czech Republic, and Ukraine. January 2020 saw the release of DWTD's latest EP “Blackout”, as well as the addition of drummer John Terry (Starkill) to the duo's live lineup.
