Aldebran explains that Party Music for Graveyards is meant to be the historical continuation of the precedent Blood 'n' Roll (2005 Six Six Six Records UK, label of Cradle of Filth bass player Dave Pybus ). Blood 'n' Roll was indeed settled at an imaginary dark bohemien time in France where frontman's alter ego Aldebran di Alteg was seeking for lost souls and dissoluted vampires. Party Music for Graveyards takes place during second world war in Germany, mad scientist Aldebran di Alteg, resembling Nightmare Before Christmas' "Dr. Finklestein" is feeling blue and in love while working on visionary experiments. You would think that all this imagery would be featured in the lyrics, but it doesn't directly. It's all purely "in the air", a mere suggestion which is meant to be continued on upcoming future albums.

Those remembering Bloody Mary for their plasma dropped, deep and rocking tunes heavily influenced by Type O' Negative and Anathema tunes, will find in Party Music for Graveyards a sonic evolution (already anticipated in 2007 by preparatory EP Dig up for the Party) charmingly oriented on a multilayered carpet of electronic sounds and edgy choruses which seem to be the perfect evolution of 80s new wave for dark and gothic clubs. Party Music for Graveyards will be released by Valery Records on September, 7 - 2010 and distributed by Frontiers Records / Edel (Italy), Point Music (Germany), Cargo Records (UK&Eire), Avispa Music (Spain), Metal Zone (Benelux), iTunes (worldwide).
