“Dead Can Dance” Archives

All of the band’s future releases will be sold exclusively via Bandcamp.

Dead Can Dance come back from the dead, The Mary Onettes adjust their ’80s sound, and Saint Etienne just want you to dance.

I’m struck yet again by the primal-yet-artful beauty that fills Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard’s music.

Also: Planned Parenthood, building Minas Tirith, the state of web design, atheists and Christian rock, and more.

Listening to these recordings, you get a real sense of just how overwhelming this group must be to experience live.

4 discs might seem like a little much for any band, but given Dead Can Dance’s diverse, extensive catalog, it feels just about right.
