Since the band's formation in 2004, Blood Red Shoes has become synonymous with electrifying performances and captivating music. With nearly 1300 live shows across the globe, they've left an indelible mark - from London to Tokyo, New York to Jakarta, Mexico City to Moscow, and Paris to Seoul. Continuously evolving their sound to include elements of electronics, industrial, and experimentation while maintaining their signature male-female dual vocals, the band's ability to reinvent themselves has solidified their influential presence in the alternative music landscape.
In line with the gothic and horror themes of the band's sixth album 'GHOSTS ON TAPE', 'THE STONE TAPES' is a reference to an abstruse 1970s film where the passing of an old resident has been "recorded" into the stone bricks of the house, and then "plays back" by using future visitors as mediums. 'THE STONE TAPES' continues the album's ominous and dark motifs, immersing listeners in an eerie musical journey where the essence of the past plays back through every note.
