Death in Vegas is an electronic rock band from the United Kingdom, formed in London in 1994 by Richard Fearless and Steve Hellier. Originally known as "Dead Elvis," they changed their name due to objections from the Elvis Presley estate. Influenced by a diverse range of genres including psychedelic rock, electronic, krautrock, dub, and industrial, their sound seamlessly blends live rock elements with electronic beats.

The band's founder Richard Fearless (Richard Maguire) continues to lead Death in Vegas today. While Tim Holmes was not involved in the recording process of their album "Trans-Love Energies" and is no longer part of the current lineup.

If you enjoy artists such as UNKLE, Tricky, Fluke, or Underworld, you'll likely appreciate Death in Vegas' unique fusion of styles. With a discography that spans over two decades and includes collaborations with notable musicians like Martina Topley-Bird and David Holmes, Death in Vegas remains an influential force within the electronic music scene.

Death in Vegas returns with 'Transmission', the sixth release from the project begun by Richard Fearless nearly two decades ago, and the first new album since 'Trans-Love Energies' in 2011. United over a love of Throbbing Gristle and Chris and Cosey, Fearless partners with artist and writer Sasha Grey, whose lyrics resonate across the soundscape of visceral techno and unsettling, discordant drones, weaving into a state of dreamlike euphoria. Field recordings of the constant drone of air traffic and incessant noise from the steel factory opposite Fearless' Metal Box studio, as well as the Ballardian landscape in which it's set, all exert their pull on the record, searching for light in the dark. 3LP - Triple 180 Gram Vinyl Set with Download.
