Dark pop duo Corlyx released their latest single, "The Sacrifice," accompanied by a visually thrilling music video. Available today through Out Of LineMusic, the new track is a masterful blend of 80’s post punk, 90’s rock, grunge, and modern darkwave, creating an irresistibly haunting yet upbeat anthem.
"This song has all the witchy drama; it’s slightly camp but spooky and very fun to dance to," explains Caitlin Stokes of Corlyx. "I wanted to tell a story of a forest witch who was wrongfully murdered and resurrects to seek her revenge. She is also a euphemism for Mother Earth and the destruction of nature, her fury continues to wreak havoc on the wickedness of man...we are her sacrifice."

Brandon Ashley adds, “Yes, we actually used rain and thunder noises in the production, totally setting the mood and giving this track that 90’s spooky rock feel. This song is a great combination of post-punk with a tinge of gothic 70’s rock, working our way up to add as many flavours as possible for this next record."

Her soul keeps me awake
The final resting place
Has been disturbed by dread
She rises up instead...
Get ready for the sacrifice
Come dance with us as we cast spells in the night...
