1.	Parasite 03:02	lyrics	buy track
It’s a reaction The sharpened knife of pretense slashes us all With no conviction The safest place is your back against the wall You can’t care when it's everywhere The faces know your name Your shame, your sick, your seduction, it All passes as you fall Parasite Blocking out all the light Is it romantic? How we dig our of graves and suffocate On erotically asphyxiated dreams we overstate From the rotting shell to the self made hell The passage into night When reality and sanity Never leave without a fight Parasite Blocking out all the light
2.	Walk into It 02:40	lyrics	buy track
You walk and to talk to no one You hear the screams and rhythms You think that that you’re so different Follow the dotted white line But everybody knows that You are frozen to the floor You enter into darkness You only want to feel fine We want your zombie quiet We want your mind control Teach us to turn the lights off And disconnect it all We want indifferent silence We want your mind control Teach us how to to be hollow And to forget it all

about

Born from the ashes to ashes of a pandemic overstaying its projected expiration, you can’t make up HEX CODE—it’s the sort of band formed from a big bang writhing out of the member's internal dystopias; reassembling shards bereft of alibi other than: you’re broken, you’re by it. Finally, guilt by association—when back in the old world, even in the same urban village of Long Beach, kindred spirits Mary Animaux (JAIL WEDDINGS, WHITE MURDER) and Veronica Cruz (RATS IN THE LOUVRE) didn’t cross paths until now; because maybe the world was always this shattered and maybe sometimes it takes a bigger disaster to shake up the pieces and get truly with it.

HEX CODE’s debut two-song single “Parasite” b/w “Walk into It” conjures HELL COMES TO YOUR HOUSE vibes of early L.A. death rock like 45 GRAVE, SUPER HEROINES, and CHRISTIAN DEATH; haunting octave chords scream atmospheric yet accelerated like THE WIPERS colliding with THE ADOLESCENTS; yet contemporary like MURDER CITY DEVILS on a date with SAVAGES.

HEX CODE’s rhythm is rounded out by Redd (BELLHAUNTS) on drums and Lily Stretz (MEOW TWINS) on bass, under unison vox by Mary and Veronica on organ and guitar.

Debut album coming in 2024.

Living For Nothing finds Horror Vacui in their best form. Songwriting and production here is even better than the excellent New Wave of Fear album and the intricate guitar work makes this their darkest offering so far. Top notch Post-Punk/Deathrock! My blessings. Elis Alex
