Darkwave Rockers Bleached Cross Release “Blood Moon” Video…Chicago blackened dark-wave band Bleached Cross is excited to share its new single “Blood Moon,” the final preview of its new album, Wrath. The track is defined by shimmery guitars and synths, reflecting on memories of a lost love, culminating in an anthemic, cathartic ending.
About “Blood Moon,” the band shares, “This song is about eternal love, devotion, and the idea of fate bonding people together even beyond death, as love is the one thing death is unable to take away from the living. The ending implies the taking of someone else’s life to ease their suffering, knowing fate will bind you together again in the next life, but it can also be interpreted as killing yourself to be with someone who has passed…both ideas come up in other songs on the album.”
Wrath represents the culmination of years spent carving out a distinct identity within underground heavy music. Following early self-recorded demos and a split release with Shamewave, Bleached Cross released their self-titled debut LP in 2022 through Protagonist Music, later followed by 2024’s Columns of Impenetrable Light split with Boston’s The True Faith. Along the way, they’ve toured and shared stages with artists like Frail Body, Secret Shame, Black Magnet, Bongripper, Cloakroom, Deaf Club, and Your Arms Are My Cocoon, while continuing to evolve beyond easy genre classification.
