Artist History DRAMA ASYLUM, were formed in the summer of 1990,by two disenchanted dreamers. Who just happened to have a fondness for the SISTERS OF MERCY, and also a love of 70’s Glam and progressive rock. Especially bands like Queen and led Zeppelin Add to this a singer with a love of the CURE and DEPECHE MODE, plus anything dark and electronic and you have the basis, for what turned out to be a five-year roller-coaster ride. Of high and low times, ending with sporadic recordings. Which still carried on, in one form or another, long after the bands official demise. Drama asylum’s material progressed or regressed (depending on your point of view), as every new recording became available. And even though they had many different influences they always managed to sound just like the drama asylum. Which usually meant taking music and spoken word “samples” from the most unlikely sources. The band were also commissioned to write two music scores, the first was a dark journey into the realms of science fiction. And the second one was, a dark musical score loosely based on Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula At this precise moment in time, their are plans for a new Drama Asylum CD,which will be released in early 2003. With some Live dates due in the Fall of 2003 Which will be recorded for inclusion on a long awaited live CD. There will also be a compilation c.d. available in the very near future entitled Drama Asylum A DISCOVERY. Plus a Covers CD of the bands all time Favorite songs.Also they do have an extensive back catalogue, some of which is still available

Press Reviews Drama Asylum 1994 - The black album SOD 040 CD 1995 Sounds of Delight licensed the Debut-Album of Drama Asylum from Harrow, Middx, England. Rhythmic, melodic and danceable guitarsounds with rocking drums and keyboards, influenced of a lot of famous singers and bands, result the unmistakable full sound of Drama Asylum. Atmospheric influence by the songs and the voice is unmistakable. An album, which will find a lot of friends, like already in England. Crown Of thorns(1990-1994)(black sun) This is a Compilation Of 7 and 12 inch singles. If you like Classic gothic Drum machine, moody strings,mixed against washes of atmospheric sequencers and cut up guitar this could be for you.The overall Feel of this CD is of an embryonic band experimenting with sound and musical styles.ASH (whiplash)
