DALTON DESCHAIN & THE TRAVELING SHOW – “SOME DARK MAGIK”
A Spill Exclusive Music Premiere
“Some Dark Magik,” the new single from NYC pulp-punk act Dalton Deschain & the Traveling Show, is a strange and catchy pop-punk pastiche about love and loss and ritual sacrifice. It tells the story of a couple who has lost the spark in their relationship, and have become bored by each other….so they decide to kill each other and bring each other back from the dead using, of course, some dark magik. It’s weird and funny and tragic all in one, a signature combination for the band. Singer and songwriter Dalton Deschain took inspiration from Buffy The Vampire Slayer (season 6, specifically), and used that to fit the song into their already ongoing concept horror story that weaves through all of their songs.
Artist Quote
“Despite our heavy sci-fi and comic book leanings, a lot of our songs end up being pretty serious and straight-faced. I really wanted to write a song that kept the emotional core of our story we’re telling, but lean more into the outrageous and fun side of these pulp stories that we draw from.” ~Singer/Songwriter Dalton Deschain
