Thriller (Single)

Shem This one's an absolute Thriller! A fantastic, creative-yet-faithful recreation of one of the most classic of classics. Scandroid stays close enough to retain MJ's signature style, whilst adding plenty of F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C Cyberpunk and Synthwave sounds. Just fantastic!

DΔN_85 80ies Retro-feeling at it's best...
Mixed with that certain something of modern technical possibilities and a slight, very cool, goth-touch..
I always loved the Original from Jackson...
When I heard, Klayton wants to do a cover, I was excited as a 6 year old Boy before christmas.
And he didn't disappoint me...
Absolutely fantastic and respectful cover of the title-track of the most sold album in the history of music...

Well done, go on like this man...

about

Released just in time for the Halloween season, the Scandroid cover of "Thriller" is accompanied by a lyric video paying homage to the original Michael Jackson music video, featuring shots of robotic zombies and werewolves performing "Thriller's" classic dance moves.

"I knew when I started the album (Monochrome) that I wanted to do a Halloween-related track. It only took me 1/4 of a second to conclude this would be my perfect chance to cover a track I loved during the 80s. I probably watched the 'Thriller' music video 100+ times on my parents VCR after I recorded it from MTV." - Klayton

"Thriller" appears on Scandroid's upcoming sophomore album Monochrome, available October 27th, 2017.

THE SHAPE
by DANCE WITH THE DEAD

supported by 86 fans who also own “Thriller (Single)”

When I was a rogue cop in the 80s who recently lost my badge and gun trying to avenge my wife. She was killed by The Cartel/Mob/Yakuza/etc... Driving out to the beach to watch the sunrise from a long muggy summer night of drinking and justice. This was the soundtrack to my life. Another classic album. dzestmen

B-Sides: Volume 1
by DANCE WITH THE DEAD

supported by 84 fans who also own “Thriller (Single)”

Have to say this B-Sides album is my favorite Dance with the Dead album. A superb collection of tracks that work together as well as any A-side album. Favourite track is a tough call between "Get Out, "Banshee" and "The Man Who Made A Monster". Dave Smith
