Industrial legend Leæther Strip back with Tommi Stumpff banger “Massaker”

Los Angeles, California: Claus Larsen, known to 30-plus years worth of industrial fans as Leæther Strip, is back with a brand new single drawn from his upcoming Halloween album All Hallow’s Eve.

Following a tempestuous reading of “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” with the even heavier-hitting “Massaker,” Larsen not only reawakens old memories, he paints fresh textures across one of the key industrial dance club hits of the early 1990s.

A major, manic European club hit for composer Tommi Stumpff in 1991, just as Larsen himself was stepping up to dominate the dancefloor, “Massaker” was a BPM behemoth, as dynamic as it was doom-laden, a swirling sweatbox that retains all its original power… and then some… in Leæther Strip’s hands.

Indeed, “Massaker” has already established itself as a firm audience favorite in Larsen’s current live set, yet it is scarcely alone in driving All Hallow’s Eve into vivid new landscapes.

Depeche Mode, the Cramps, the Human League and Siouxsie and the Banshees all receive a classic Leæther Strip lashing across this remarkable album - itself the seventh volume in Larsen’s long-running Æppreciation series of truly immolative covers.

The darkest movie themes, too, swirl within the smoke, as All Hallows Eve aligns itself alongside Cleopatra’s other seasonal classic of the year, Gothic Halloween - home to Larsen’s own self-penned horror classic “Strap Me Down” - to guarantee a super-scarifying time for all.

Larsen says, “This is a collection of covers of songs that I connect to my own Halloween. Songs that I would have on a October 31st playlist. Something to enhance the mood of my favorite time of year. They are all songs that I love, songs that I find timeless and very inspiring. Enjoy and celebrate this wonderful time of year.”
