Just as the title suggests, gothic rock/metal band Seraphim Shock are self-described as the ultimate Halloween band within the gothic rock scene. The band has toured with such bands as The Electric Hellfire Club, Type O Negative, Tiamat, Mayhem, Cradle of Filth and many more throughout their career. The been around since the mid-90’s and have released their first self-titled demo in 1994.

They released their first official album in 1997, Red Silk Vow under their own label Requiem Records. The follow up EP Nightmares for the Banished was released in 1999 under the same label. The records were re-release later on through indie metal label Sacrilege Records after the band fell into obscure within the goth scene due to high demand. The early works were praise by many for their gothic rock/metal hybrid sound which helped them cross over into the metal scene granted them tours with many prominent metal bands. Although however they never made the full transition into the metal world.

After a short hiatus, the band returned in 2004 with a whole new album, Halloween, Sex N’ Vegas. Along with a new revamped sound, the band added slight hints of industrial with a whole new horror punk coat while sticking to the original gothic rock sound. The album also included a different version of their song “Prey” which original came out in 1999 in the compilation Music from the Succubus Club. The compilation was inspired by the tabletop roll playing game Vampire the Masquerade.
