Dance Music vs. Punk Rock

This one's kind of a monster...

Easily the most raw and energetic track so far, "The Needle Down" takes 3/4 electro-dance music and fires it straight into a 4/4 wall of distortion. Cancer Killing Gemini's "The Needle Down" free for March:

MAR - The Needle Down by Cancer Killing Gemini

Getting ready for the first CKG shows 
April 2nd @ The Jam Factory in Manchester NH 
April 15th @ The Cantab in Cambridge, MA

One new free song a month…forever. That’s still the plan. Join the mailing list to get monthly reminders with download links. You can still grab a few others at http://www.cancerkillinggemini.com

Next month's tune: "You Let The Honey Out Of Me".

Cheers,
