Collection: Deathrock

Deathrock is a dark and atmospheric subgenre of punk rock that emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s, blending elements of gothic rock, post-punk, and horror-themed aesthetics. Characterized by its macabre lyrics, haunting melodies, and often theatrical performances, deathrock has spawned various offshoots and regional interpretations. Psychobilly, for instance, infuses the genre with rockabilly influences and a more upbeat tempo, while still maintaining the horror-inspired themes. In Brazil, the genre has taken on unique cultural flavors, with Horror Punk Brasileiro incorporating local folklore and tropical gothic elements, and Gotico Brasileiro fusing traditional Brazilian music styles with the dark, brooding atmosphere of deathrock. These subgenres showcase the versatility and global appeal of deathrock, as it continues to evolve and captivate audiences with its haunting soundscapes and provocative imagery.
