All Hallowed offer dance punk sirensong in debut single "Kill"

Dayton, Ohio's All Hallowed are a bass/vox/drums dance punk powerhouse comprised of Ricky and Lacey Terrell that emerges from a backdrop of industrial decline and urban decay during a staggeringly weird and hopelessly dangerous period in history. The group is set to debut their artsy, dancefloor siren-song debut single, "Kill," on January 31, 2021.

Clocking in at under two and a half minutes, "Kill" carries the banner of their less-is-more mantra, which might seem overly efficient. Make no mistake,All Hallowed deliver groovy, fuzz damaged riffs that land with a lurid, melodramatic force that lacks subtlety. All Hallowed is a band that is reverent in their influences, and in "Kill" listeners are sure to hear nuanced nods to everyone from Death From Above 1979, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Faint, and The Kills to Blondie.

"Ricky has copious amounts of lyrics that he's scribbled down over the years. I cherry picked some of my favorites and created a melody to match the bass line he's been noodling," Lacey says of "Kill." "Although, I feared there would be a lack continuity, when paired correctly, they emerged as a powerful, albeit short, dance anthem."

When asked about the concept behind "Kill," Ricky offers a more enigmatic take. "The theme behind 'Kill' isn't terribly deliberate -- I prefer to let the listener create their own meaning and conviction from what we've created. Each song we write ends up with a subjective meaning or interpretation in my mind, but that same experience should be available to anyone who hears it. I prefer not to tell others what to infer from it."

The duo recruited Aaron Gillespie (of Underoath, The Almost) who recorded the drums at his stand alone studio in Utah, "Kill" was produced by Denny Cottle and engineered, mixed and mastered by Micah Carli (formerly of Hawthorne Heights) at his Popside studio in Troy, Ohio.

"Kill" is the first single from a larger, yet-to-be announced, future release by All Hallowed.

lyrics

KILL

Verse 1
Don’t be afraid of people
They can kill you
But they cannot kill your soul
Make a clean break
with cutting, backbiting
and your filthy tongue

Be gentle with one another
Forgive one another, quickly
Pretty please
Don’t be afraid of people
They can kill you
But they cannot kill your soul

Verse 2
Keep in mind some principles
Will help us
repair our damaged lives
Every individual is fighting
A great battle
Being waged within their mind

They face the outside
Enemies
When they let their evil shine
Keep in mind some principles
Will help us
repair our damaged lives

Bridge
Silence Yourself

The whole EP is fantastic and flows really well from each track to the next. It’s a little reminiscent of older PUP The Band material, but has its own thing too. The reverb-drenched segueway tracks between songs are beautiful. Nick

2nd listen: there's warmth and comfort in these songs. And goodness knows we need that right now! 1st listen: dreamy melodies blend almost seamlessly with a bizarrely chromatic, sometimes dissonant, accompaniment. What may seem a recipe for disaster turns out to be a little miracle in the making. nofatclips
