THE SWEET KILL is a one-man Post-Punk, Dark & Gothic diviner of millenarian angst. Driven by cold synths, atmospheric guitar, minimal drums and melodic bass, multi-instrumentalist and velvety crooning baritone Pete Mills conducts a cinematic Darkwave masterpiece of romantic sorrow echoing the laments of The Cure and Joy Division.  

Shadow Zone Sound is his own studio where Mills records and produces all THE SWEET KILL material. UNDEAD and FORBIDDEN are the current singles from the highly anticipated sophomoric album NOWHERE which comes out on Young & Cold Records (Germany) as well as Shadow Zone Records (USA). Mills exclaims, “NOWHERE questions the final analysis of the soul’s journey between life and death, are we eternally floating in the ether or are we never lost and always found?”

The Sweet Kill continue to put out tracks that are emotional rollercoasters
— Vents Magazine
There’s a lot of pain and angst in The Sweet Kill’s music, and I was ready to get “moody” with Pete and company
— Blurred Culture
Mills has a varied vocal approach that rates among the song’s highlights. He does an excellent job bringing the admittedly dark lyrical content to life, without ever veering melodrama, and the focused writing is key to bringing that off.

If you’re a fan of that post-punk that marked the 1980’s, you need to know the work of The Sweet Kill.
