The 90s are back—at least in the world of Aesthetic Perfection. Daniel Graves, the Austrian-American industrial pop trailblazer, returns with his most ambitious project yet: The Bad Vibes EP. This 3-song sensory assault delivers a disorienting punch of 90s nostalgia, where dial-up modems hum alongside samples of televangelists and infomercial hosts, all set against a backdrop of blistering guitars, guttural screams, and relentless mechanical rhythms. Anchored by Graves’ signature melodies and sharp pop sensibilities, The Bad Vibes EP is both a reflection on American culture during the Satanic Panic and a commentary on our present moment. Wearing its influences proudly, The Bad Vibes EP evokes the raw energy of The Downward Spiral-era Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson’s Portrait of an American Family while remaining undeniably Aesthetic Perfection. Mixed by the legendary Sean Beavan (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, Guns N’ Roses) and featuring the searing guitars of Sebastian Svalland (PAIN, Lindemann, Letters from the Colony) with live drums by Mike Schopf (Cil City), this EP bridges the gap between past and future with unparalleled intensity. The Bad Vibes EP will be released as a series of singles, starting with “Into the Void” on September 13th, followed by “Self Inflicted” on October 4th, and concluding with “Bad Vibes” on October 11th. ▶ OFFICIAL WEBSITE: ▶ PATREON: ▶ INSTAGRAM: ▶ MERCH NORTH AMERICA: ▶ MERCH EUROPE:
