Watch: Drab Majesty Drops Lyric Video For New Track "Oak Wood"

Los Angeles based goth/new wave/post-punk musician Deb Demure aka Drab Majesty has dropped a lyric video for his new single "Oak Wood". 

The 7” single b/w the beautiful ambient reflection “Egress” is out today (Sept. 1) via Dais Records. Buy your copy here.

“Oak Wood" was song received a couple weeks following the Ghostship tragedy in Oakland.  The DAIS family lost one of it's most beloved members, Cash Askew, and its song title is a literal translation of her last name; In Old Norse being Eiki (oak) Skogr (wood) thus making Oak Wood.  I found the name to be symbolically poignant in light of the events and wanted this to be a tribute piece.  The lyrics grapple with the existence of a god in a time of such utter sadness, hopelessness, and confusion.
