You can feel the emotion. You can feel the anger.&#8221; The band has been together in its current formation since 2011, and have recently released the video for their new song, &#8216;Thrill Of The Kill&#8217;.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Born to parents in rock bands, Lindy Gabriel has been singing since she was six years old, and always known she was destined to be a singer. Joined by Jake LaCore on guitar, drummer Zach Williams, Figgles McGee on keyboards and samples, JACE on bass, and Joey Connelly on guitar, their sound is a unique blend of heavy metal, hard rock, and industrial.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Their second album, and their first for label Pavement Entertainment, &#8216;The Ghost Parade&#8217; is \u00a0a raw and emotional release, described by LaCore in National Rock Review, as having a &#8220;&#8216;Marilyn Manson meets Shirley Manson&#8217; vibe&#8221; making them &#8220;a little different than many other popular rock bands&#8221; in the music scene of their native Minneapolis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The video for &#8216;Thrill Of The Kill&#8217; is a strongly visual piece, both disturbing and fascinating at the same time, segueing raw and rocky performances by the band with a variety of &#8220;experiments&#8221; performed by &#8220;doctors&#8221;, intent on inflicting pain and suffering. It&#8217;s a theatrical masterpiece, and not simply shock for shock value.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Focus is put on each band member, whose raw and fierce playing is close to menacing, blurring the lines of who is more dangerous. &#8211; the band or the &#8220;doctors&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;The Ghost Parade&#8217;, including &#8216;Thrill Of The Kill&#8217; is available on <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/the-ghost-parade\/id1140332966\" target=\"_blank\">iTunes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Ghost-Parade-Gabriel-Apocalypse\/dp\/B01K4VKJSM\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/2B99jTyGpfF7S5vV78F4gj\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Find out more about Gabriel and the Apocalypse online on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GATA_band\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pg\/GabrielandtheApocalypse\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>, and their <a href=\"http:\/\/gabrielandtheapocalypse.com\" target=\"_blank\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_31302\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NkJRM59v_Ko?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Gabriel and the Apocalypse - Thrill of the Kill (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/NkJRM59v_Ko\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With their heavy rock\/industrial style, Gabriel and the Apocalypse are dramatic and theatrical, but in the words of frontwoman Lindy Gabriel, &#8220;not over polished.
