Ripper isn’t about horror itself — it’s about control.
About the kind of person who defines their worth through dominance, through killing — animals, people, whatever it takes to feel powerful.
It’s a song about ego, violence, and the illusion of strength. The horror comes from how real it feels.

Ripper - gritty dark indie rock / Vegas No. 8

Pretty Lady started with my first real guitar riff — simple, raw, and still full of that first spark.
It’s about finally saying what you never dared to say years ago.
About passion that never really fades, even when you tried to move on.
The kind of fire that still burns quietly, waiting for its moment.

Pretty Lady - emotional alt-rock / Vegas No. 8

Dark September is a song I wrote after my mother passed away — she was born and died in the same month.
It’s not a song about loss itself, but about the silence that follows — the strange calm, the emptiness that slowly becomes part of you.
I didn’t plan to write it. It just happened — like September itself.

Dark September - melancholic alt-rock / Vegas No. 8

Every Needle Hurts is about living under control — growing up with dominant persons, where silence becomes routine and pain feels normal.
It’s about the outsider who learns to survive by accepting the hurt — until every sting becomes part of who he is.
Guitars, tension, and a voice that doesn’t hide.


Every Needle Hurts - emotional post-punk ballad / Vegas No. 8

Bewitched Doll” is a revenge song.
It’s about anger that builds up over years, the feeling of being wronged, and that moment where you finally stop holding it back.

The guitars are raw first takes, the vocals intentionally rough — I wanted it to sound like something boiling under the surface.

No AI used — every sound is played and recorded by me.

Hey, I’m Meik from Germany — making music under the name Vegas No. 8.
I write, arrange, and record everything myself. Guitars are my main voice — even when I sing (which I honestly never planned to do).

My sound lives somewhere between Post-Punk, Darkwave, and Alternative Rock — raw, emotional, and guitar-driven.
Thanks for listening and supporting independent music.

I’m always looking for new connections around the world!
If you’d like to play or record one of my songs, just ask — I’m open to any idea.

Let’s make some cool rock music for this planet.
Enjoy!
