Grrr Records is excited to announce the release of Leper‘s new album Beautiful Gray Day, available September 11, 2012. This latest goth album mixes electronic, industrial and rock genres and features dark, emotional themes of loneliness and malaise that are rimmed with romance and hope. Even the album title, Beautiful Gray Day, communicates the idea that the beauty of love and hope can be experienced in something as seemingly dark and depressing as a gray rainy day.
Grrr Records is really excited about this project and we want as many people to hear it as possible. So beginning at 10 AM (CST) on Tuesday, August 28, we will stream the entire Beautiful Gray Day album for 24 hours. On August 28, go to grrrrecords.com/leper and listen to a live stream of all 12 tracks.
Leper is the musical and artistic expression of Skot Shaw. Using hauntingly melodic vocals, driving keys and brooding guitar, Leper orchestrates a compelling sound combining elements of goth, industrial, dance and rock. All the while, Leper exudes the shadowy, emotional eeriness that defines a goth band. Leper’s influences and inspiration are drawn from many different sources creating a musical tapestry woven with the threads of despair, struggle and redemption.
