From the dying embers of Shelleyan orphan (with the late Caroline Crawley). jem Tayle plucks out its heart, and along with Boris Williams of the Cure, they forge the beast that is Vamborator: a magical funky hybrid; a frisky colt on a journey to find a meaning in this age of loneliness.
This is vamberator, growing in the shade where the most interesting plants grow, an emotional being,  a sensitive flower; the animal serenader; a rebellious beast!

Reg Bloor's experimental guitar has been described as "Part black metal, part no wave, and part nuclear holocaust." (MP Lockwood - No Core) Now she's finally releasing her debut solo album "Theme from an Imaginary Slasher" where she takes her experiments in atonal harmony and dissonance, angular melodies and dizzying meter to new extremes, seeking to redefine what is possible on the instrument.

Most recently, Reg has served as concertmaster for Glenn Branca's premiere of "Sypmhony No. 16 (Orgasm)" for 100 Guitars in Paris in February 2015.


Through the years Bloor has work with David Bowie, Page Hamilton, Thurston Moore, John Patitucci, Annie Clark/St. Vincent, Mike Watt, Adrian Utley (Portishead), Ty Braxton, tomandandy, Jason Vieaux, members of Godspeed You Black Emperor among others.

In the neo-gothic realms of Bloomington, Indiana, Josh Kreuzman birthed the spectral music project Twice Dark in 2020. Inspired by the melancholic grandeur of decaying industrial spaces, Twice Dark weaves together goth, industrial, EBM, italodisco, deathrock, coldwave, and darkwave, capturing a haunting elegance reminiscent of a forgotten era.
Post-punk.com describes Twice Dark as being, “dipped in auditory shadows and echoing with the retro resonance of the 1980s music scene...like a phantom reaching out through a fog of time.”
Kreuzman’s artistic roots run deep, having earned a BFA in Sculpture and a Minor in Art History from Indiana University Bloomington in 2005.  His band experience dates back to 1992, when he first dabbled in punk bands during high school. In college, he continued experimenting with alternative and punk sounds before transitioning into the indie rock scene, which eventually evolved into the dark, eclectic sound that defines Twice Dark.
In 2022, Kreuzman curated and released the "Midwest Gothic" compilation, a collection featuring bands from across the Midwest. The project was praised as "awesome" and "stacked with talent" by soundandshadows.com. Kreuzman celebrated the project with a live show in Indianapolis in early 2023.
His upcoming 2025 album, 'Telekinetic', promises to take listeners even deeper into his haunting, sonic landscapes, solidifying Twice Dark as a rising force in the world of darkwave and electronic music.
