THE BELLWETHER SYNDICATE
Songs of Celebration, Loss and Liberation
"We All Rise," the fourth single off their long-awaited full-length LP is avaiable now as digital-only release via Sett Records (North America) and Nexilis/Schubert (Rest Of World). A tale of hope and struggle, the song speaks of inner-courage and rage for what could be... A powerhouse of a track, the reflective tone of the verse climaxes in the screaming industrial chorus, stirring both the heart and mind.
THE BELLWETHER SYNDICATE will be touring the U.S. throughout March of 2023 as special guests of Clan of Xymox, with extensive North American and European tour plans to follow the release of the full-length album Vestige & Vigil, on April 28, 2023.
William Faith, former member of seminal goth acts Christian Death, Mephisto Walz, Shadow Project and co-founder of Faith & The Muse, moved from his native Los Angeles to Chicago in 2010 to form THE BELLWETHER SYNDICATE with his wife, Sarah Rose Faith. Sarah aka “Scary Lady Sarah” is a well- known DJ and club promoter, with the longest-running goth event in North America called NOCTURNA at Metro in Chicago. The duo forms the nucleus of THE BELLWETHER SYNDICATE and also often DJs together as The PirateTwins.
Their 2013 EP The Night Watch was described as “an amazing, stunning, hell yeah, OMG, gimme some more, record! Post-punk on a not-very-discreet death rock orientation,” by Noise Journal. Next was 2018’s single “Republik.” It was called “a glittery piece of glamorous darkness...with William Faith’s crooning vocals and Sarah Rose smoothly cascading guitars,” by Post-Punk.com and was to lead to a 2019 release that never came.
While the studio recordings are made by William and Sarah alone, the live lineup includes Corey Gorey (bass) and Philly Peroxide (keyboards/percussion) and Stevyn Grey (drums).
