about

Ringo Deathstarr teamed up with Jason Reece (of …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead fame) for ‘Shadow’. The drummer and co-frontman lends his screams to the latter half of the track while singer/bass player Alex Gehring sings the sweeter parts. The strength of ‘Shadow’ comes from this contrast, Jason’s vocals add a raw rock abrasiveness to Ringo Deathstarr’s sound we haven’t heard til now.

Alex recently told Drowned In Sound that ‘Shadow’ is a stand out for her, “‘Shadow’ is possibly my favourite song out of everything we’ve done. We recorded it as a basic track where Elliott (Frazer) was just shouting, yelling and singing at various parts with scratch guitaring over the top, and he asked me what I thought of his vocal melodies which he’d labelled “Jason Reece vocals” and we kind of agreed that it did have a similar vibe. Then, almost a week later we were actually on tour with …Trail Of Dead and Elliott was like, “Shall I ask Jason if he’ll sing on the track?” and so he did and Jason was only too pleased to sing on it. Since both bands are based in Austin, it meant we could set up a studio and lay the vocal parts down pretty easily. I’d love to collaborate with them again. It was really fun, and kind of adds spice to our music.”
