Bio
Leper is the duo of Skot Shaw on vocals, guitar, keys and drum programming and Otto Jensen on bass. On occasion they can be joined by Chuck Thomas (Count Chuckula) on drums and Cecily Marx on keys.
Leper uses hauntingly melodic vocals, driving keys and brooding guitar to orchestrate a compelling sound combining elements of goth, Industrial, dance & rock, while generally exuding the shadowy emotional spookiness that defines a goth band.
Leper’s influences and inspiration are drawn from man...

“And Everybody Died doesn’t disappoint in the slightest from the beginning strands of Opening with its sample taken from Night of The Living Dead all the way through to Spielplatz (playground)which is a Rez cover by the way!; Leper have crafted an exceptional album of industrial gothic music. With influences from Pink Floyd, Mortal, The Cure, Sincerely Paul and Savior Machine this is a dark moody feast. Having recently toured with Grave Robber, Leper is the real deal.
To these ears the highlights on the song front would be Lyken (werewolf) with its extremely powerful and haunting melody, wrung out on the keyboards. This song demands to be played at maximum volume. From the subtle verses to the dominating musical bridges I must’ve played this song some 10 times in a row. The vocal sample taken from the 1976 film Logan’s Run was sheer brilliance and adds just the right ambience.
