Before the Pale Dawn EP had a release date, it had a moment.

On March 13, 2026, "Skin" received its world premiere as a live spin on GeisterweltNights, the front-page Twitch stream hosted by DJs Thomas and Marlen. The shoutout went out to more than 2,600 listeners in real time. The reaction was immediate.

That is how a Morella Records release enters the world. Not with an algorithm playlist placement. With a real moment, on a real stream, in front of a real audience that showed up because they trust the people playing the music.

"Skin", released March 27, 2026 is the second single from Vampire Valentine's debut EP Pale Dawn, seven tracks of UK darkwave and post-punk from the duo of Michael Longstaff and Kieron Wright. The track does exactly what a single should: it tells you who this band is and makes you want to hear what comes next.

Pale Dawn is out now on all platforms and available on CD and digital at morellarecords.com.
