DOPE And DRAMA CLUB Release Re-Imagining Of THE CURE Classic "Lovesong"; Visualizer

With ten days until the release of Blood Money Part Zer0, New York City electro metal heads Dope have once again partnered with Drama Club to release a re-imagining of The Cure’s 1989 classic, “Lovesong”. The song opens with an electro synth intro before the distortion kicks in on the chorus melody that starts the track. Edsel Dope’s signature vocals demonstrate the industrial sound that catapulted Dope to massive global appeal and garnered them a loyal legion of fans.

To this day, Dope is one of the top streaming artists of the genre. “Lovesong” (Feat. Drama Club) is the ninth piece of music that the band has released to fans in advance of the release of Blood Money Part Zer0 on February 24. The new song is available via all streaming services and a visualizer for the new single can be viewed below:

Blood Money Part Zer0 is the band’s first release in seven years and is the follow up to 2016’s Blood Money Part 1, which debuted at #27 on the Billboard top 200, selling over 15K units in its first week. Dope has sold more than a million combined albums and have amassed an incredible audience of nearly 2-million monthly listeners on Spotify, while racking up more than 130 million plays on their cult classic “Die MF Die”.

In a move to demonstrate the bands sincere appreciation to their loyal fanbase for more than two decades, the band is giving away Blood Money Part Zer0 for FREE digitally. Longtime fans, curious listeners and people that enjoy gratis music can sign up to download the album for free on the band’s website.
