 ‘Veronica’s Veil’ was released through Erol Alkan’s Phantasy label, and set off an A+R whirlwind. Having signed to the Pharmacy Recording Company, a new imprint of Universal Records, Dandi and Marta toured with Florence And The Machine in the UK, before disappearing to start work on what will become their debut album, set for release in Spring 2010. For now, they are releasing the first fruits of their recording – ‘A Coin For The Well’. Recorded with producer Eric Broucek of DFA at their Plantain Studios in New York.  ‘A Coin For The Well’ is the first taste of what they have created.
 
If ‘Veronica’s Veil’ harked back to the golden age of disco, then ‘A Coin For The Well’ moves things forward, adding elements from heyday of synth pop, with influences such as the Pet Shop Boys, the Human League and Soft Cell.
 
The vocals are classic disco, all icy cool and detached though never soulless. ‘Reunited’ is a colder affair, more brooding next to Cannibal’s leftfield disco pop.
 
Fan Death have created their own world, a rich tapestry of music, art, fashion and fantasy, creating a sound and look that is totally original. Glamorous and dramatic, fantastical and escapist, Fan Death are one of a kind. Their fevered imaginations taking them in musical directions no one else can replicate. Along with the music, the visual side is just as important. Influences as far and wide as Labyrinth and the Neverending Story, Jodorowsky and Fellini.
 
Their sound is constructed for all corners of the galaxy for a deeply rich listening experience.  ‘Cannibal’ has its roots in the disco of “Veronica’s Veil’. Driven by a brilliant string motif with dazzling results. The lead track off the EP, its hook-filled dancefloor hit that is a pure leftfield pop classic in the making.
 
‘Reunited’ is darker, and fleshes out the Fan Death musical world. It comes alongside an incredible video. Self-made adventure where Dandi hits the road and features guests such as Marilyn Manson, Billy Corgan, Prince, Axel Rose, Adam Ant, Brian Eno, Siouxsie Sioux and more.  Look out for it.
 
‘Power Surge’ is a clattering sting-laden affair, whilst ‘Soon’ shows slowed down side of the Fan Death coin, whilst Son Will Rise ties rounds the EP off with a head rush of a final track.
 
Dandi and Marta are now locked away, putting the finishing touches to their debut album, due Spring 2010. The first album set to be released by the Pharmacy Recording Company, it is certain to be one exciting debuts of next year.
