Vampire Sex Chain exploded onto the "alternative" music scene with their
unique brand of pop-goth in the 1980's. Although short lived, Vampire Sex Chain
is considered to be historically important as the precursor to a whole
generation of pop-goth type acts such as Smashing Pumpkins and Good Charlotte.
The "Vamps" were David Lashmar also known as "Zeptae" (Vocals/Guitar) - later to
be involved in Syringe, Choke On Candy, Nikki T, Devious01, and Zeptae, Calvin
Hager (Guitar) - later to be involved in headphone overtone, Blue, Hollowphonic,
and Make Joy Cry, Daniel Wintermans (Bass) - later to be involved in Blue,
headphone overtone and Make Joy Cry, and Cindy LeMaitre (Drums) - later to be
involved in Blue.
V.S.C. only managed to put out one self-titled album which was recorded in
Hamilton, Canada at Crystal Turtle Studios. Vampire Sex Chain met with almost
immediate success receiving wide radio airplay. The recording ended up at the
top of almost every college and university station across North America. The
popularity of this album spread fast and it wasn't long until teens in
Australia, South America, and Japan were gobbling up Vampire Sex Chain
recordings too!
Unfortunately, before V.S.C. could ink a recording deal with one of the
interested major labels, the band members ran into an impasse on the future
direction of the band and they split up in 1990.
David Lashmar remastered the Vampire Sex Chain album in 2005. You can download
the entire remastered Vampire Sex Chain on ZEPTAE.COM.
Although Vampire Sex Chain is no more, their pioneering musical style can be
felt in many of today's top "alternative" acts.
