London After Midnight
– Oddities Too
Released: 14 October 2022
It is an album packed full of absolute great songs. Three cover songs on here also excel. Their rendition of “Hot Stuff” is far from the original but solid and laid back in its beat and melody.
“Scary Monsters”, the BOWIE cover, is one of those wow moments. You need to be confident and very good to take on a Bowie song and pull it off; LAM does this exceptionally well.
“Sally’s Song”, the one from Nightmare Before Christmas, is an absolute little gem, but this is followed by an incredible little melody called “ICE” that is so well… Christmas, listen to it, and you will understand.
The haunted version of “Sacrifice” will undoubtedly get you in the mood for halloweeen too.
Who is this album for? It is for anyone who loves LAM, halloween, gothic Christmas and basically anyone with little goths looking for a first album to own.
Seriosuly, it’s an excellent album and should be in your collection.
BRILLIANT

Los Angeles-based “London After Midnight”, founded by singer/writer/musician Sean Brennan, is probably the biggest underground band you've never heard of. Cited as reviving the "goth" scene in the 1990s by the underground press, LAM shuns labels and has music that spans a broad range of styles making it difficult to peg as any one style.
London After Midnight has a large following and solid street creds that land the band on cutting edge magazine covers all over the UK, Europe, Russia and Latin America. For years London After Midnight has been selling out concerts and festivals in the USA, Europe and Latin America, headlining major festival events of up to 10,000 people (like 2019’s Wave Gotik Treffen, with 10,000 in attendance for LAM’s performance, the Cruel World festival at the Rose /Bowl in CA, and more). Every LAM album released charted in the European indie charts. Fans of LAM include the band HIM, 69 Eyes, even Marilyn Manson couldn’t help the urge to see one of the first LAM concerts in Hollywood and stated in an interview with Europe's Metal Hammer magazine that LAM was a trendsetter.
London After Midnight blends passionate songwriting with brains and a political left-leaning punch that’s sure to piss off conservative America.
Das in Los Angeles ansässige "London After Midnight", das vom Sänger/Autor/Musiker Sean Brennan gegründet wurde, ist wahrscheinlich die größte Underground-Band, von der Sie noch nie gehört haben. LAM wurde von der Underground-Presse als Wiederbelebung der "Goth"-Szene in den 1990er Jahren zitiert, meidet Labels und hat Musik, die eine breite Palette von Stilen umfasst, was es schwierig macht, als jeder Stil zu klammern.
London After Midnight hat eine große Anhängerschaft und solide Straßenbescheidungen, die die Band auf hochmodernen Magazincovern in ganz Großbritannien, Europa, Russland und Lateinamerika landen. Seit Jahren verkauft London After Midnight Konzerte und Festivals in den USA, Europa und Lateinamerika und ist Headliner großer Festivalveranstaltungen von bis zu 10.000 Personen (wie das Wave Gotik Treffen 2019, mit 10.000 Teilnehmern für die Aufführung von LAM, das Cruel World Festival im Rose /Bowl in CA und mehr). Jedes veröffentlichte LAM-Album landete in den europäischen Indie-Charts. Zu den Fans von LAM gehören die Band HIM, 69 Eyes, sogar Marilyn Manson konnte nicht umhin, eines der ersten LAM-Konzerte in Hollywood zu sehen, und erklärte in einem Interview mit dem europäischen Metal Hammer-Magazin, dass LAM ein Trendsetter sei.
London After Midnight verbindet leidenschaftliches Songwriting mit Verstand und einem politischen linksgerichteten Schlag, der das konservative Amerika mit Sicherheit verärgern wird.
