Printable version

Dead Can Dance are to release their latest single from their album, �Anastasis�, their first album in 16 years; �Opium� is the first installment of the new Dead Can Dance.
Selling out London�s Royal Albert Hall within 48 hours of tickets being released, Dead Can Dance are set to make an impact after 16 years.
Since the release of �Spiritchaser� in 1996, Dead Can Dance has hidden in the shadows of their music, but 2012 is a new era for the Australian duo.
Bringing light to their single �Opium�, it provides a new age feel, something quite different from what is usually presented. Don�t be put off by the uneasiness of this track; it requires an intense listen, in order to totally immerse yourself into the world of Dead Can Dance.
It is a wayward and intriguing track into an unknown world of Dead Can Dance, don�t be put off from the change in direction from �Spiritchaser�.
�Opium� is definitely a track not to be missed out on, currently being released as a free download, don�t miss out on a free insight into �Anastasis�.
