Mausoleums are a dark electronic three piece influenced by minimal wave and darkwave, who combine aggressive synthesisers, mechanistic drum machines, throbbing bass lines and echo soaked vocals with arresting guitar to create raw and haunting industrial soundscapes. Mausoleums have been described as capturing the brooding intensity of Carpenter’s films played out in minimalist repetition and often perform backed by live video projection created using  horror films, VCRs and mangled games consoles. They have recently added a guitarist to the line up, marking a watershed in their live performance, moving to a more tactile hardware-only set up featuring, among other things, floppy disks. Mausoleums have supported Blanck Mass and have appeared at NARC. Fest and Northern Electric Festival

"Mausoleums manage to capture brooding intensity of Carpenter’s films, while never losing sight on a deviantly  simple rhythm. This is the music working out montages, spring cleaning and saving humanity from supernatural annihilation!" This Year in Music.

"Mausoleums marry intense house and IDM inflected productions with ghostly pop sensibilities and mysterious vocals" MC-L, NARC, 2016
