Backstory:
Grotesque Treatment is a band formed in the heart of Los Angeles, California, in the year 2010. The founding members, Hayden ‘Hades’ McCormick and Julia ‘Jules’ Abrams, met in a forgotten bar on Sunset Boulevard where they discovered their shared passion for music that deviates from the mainstream. The duo, who were initially just strumming guitars for fun, started taking their music seriously after their impromptu performance in the same bar was received with thunderous applause. Soon, they added three more talents – drummer Andy ‘Andromeda’ Davis, bassist Trina ‘Triton’ Johnson, and keyboardist Ross ‘Rigel’ Thompson, completing the Grotesque Treatment lineup.

Their unique music began as an experimental venture, blending tones from different periods with a touch of the bizarre, earning them their distinct sound. They caught their big break when a music producer happened to be in the audience during one of their gigs. He saw potential in their audacious style and offered them a record deal. Their journey after that was a flurry of sell-out concerts, chart-topping albums, and a loyal fan base that swears by their music.

Genre:
Gothic Progressive Rock

Title:
“Unholy Waltz”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am – E – D – G
In the cloak of night, we dance, our shadows intertwine,
With the moon as our spotlight, the stars, they realign.
Her lips speak of forgotten tales, her eyes, they tell no lies,
In this unholy waltz, we are creatures in disguise.

(Chorus)
C – G – D – Em
Spin, spin around, under the moon’s cold glare,
In the ballroom of the damned, we dance without a care.
Unholy waltz, the rhythm of the night,
In a grotesque ballet, we find our delight.

(Verse 2)
Am – E – D – G
In the heart of darkness, we find our melody,
With each step, each turn, we create a symphony.
Her touch, a deadly poison, her gaze, a mortal sin,
In this unholy waltz, the beast within, we unpin.

(Chorus)
C – G – D – Em
Spin, spin around, in this monstrous sight,
In the grand theatre of decay, we dance with all our might.
Unholy waltz, the rhythm of the night,
In a grotesque carnival, we find our respite.

Testimonial:
“Grotesque Treatment isn’t just a band to me; it’s a musical revolution. Their lyrics speak to the soul and their unorthodox melody captures the essence of gothic progressive rock like no other. They push the boundaries of this genre, and that’s what sets them apart. Every performance of theirs is a theatrical spectacle. They are the Picasso of music, each song a masterpiece sculpted with intensity and passion. I’ve been to every one of their concerts since 2012 and each time, they leave me spellbound. They’re not just my favorite band, they are a part of my life.”
