Plasmata
Chicago’s dark alt-rock act Plasmata, have unveiled a new video and free download of their cover of Blue Öyster Cult’s classic “Tattoo Vampire”. “Tattoo Vampire” by Plasmata is available now as a free download on Bandcamp, with Spotify and other major digital platforms to follow.
Plasmata, led by Jeffries since 2005, blends classic Chicago industrial-rock and dark alt-rock with gothic “Glampire” aesthetics. The 2021 EP, “Portraits of Pain”, produced by William Faith, explored themes from Jeffries’ recovery from a brain aneurysm to the “Jack the Ripper Manifesto”. The EP also featured remixes by William Faith and Ben Christo of The Sisters of Mercy.
The band, now a four-piece, is set to bring their show to the US East Coast in September 2024 with [melter] and 2Forks for the Imperfect Waves Tour.

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
