See Woman on Vampiric Rampage in Boy Harsher's Seething New "Fate" Video

Gothy synth-pop duo bares its fangs with blood-soaked cinematic clip

Boy Harsher may be a fresh face to many, but to fans familiar with the current goth and synth-pop scenes, the duo's upcoming LP, Careful, can't come soon enough. (It's due February 1st via the band's own Nude Records.) The group's latest tease ahead of the album comes in the form of new song "Fate," which arrives with a darkly gorgeous new video telling the story of a woman grappling with her new life as a vampire, trading pasta for the blood and cruising the streets at night alone. Her rendezvous with various men leave each body cold and crimson while she nonchalantly puts out cigarettes in her victim's blood. Check out the video above. 

While the video is bang-on, "Fate" the song is a slithering and sexy exercise in synth-pop greatness, using a simple repeating keyboard melody to highlight Jae Matthews's painfully beautiful croon. The band says of the track, "This song is about how there's no amount of running that will prevent you from your life. You are raw and beat-down, yet you will continue to behave the same way — Fate is your own trouble, a magnetic force that's stuck on you forever."
