After the disbandment of the musical project Dichro, Pittsburgh based musician Pete Guellard was not one to rest on his laurels and formed a new musical project known as DEATH BY L0VE starting in 2025. Consisting of him and a Polish singer-songwriter Inga Habiba, they released their debut single called “Strong Inside”. It is meant to define what the band is about which is providing uplifting messages as we face dark times ahead. It is meant a a rally call to keep fighting.
Starting with danceable synth beat with catchy drum work added in, the song kicks in adding the sultry vocals, adding some guitars in the mix before ending on a melodic piano piece. There is a bit of Middle Eastern influence as well. The theme of the songs seems of finding strength, not only displaying strength externally but internally as well. The videos shows the whole band performing the song with shots of the main two in an urban setting. Yes the project extends more than just the duo even though they will be the front face of the project.
I definitely dug this one, it aligns to my tastes, so if you are a fan of goth music and its subsidaries, then you will enjoy this one.
You can purchase or stream the single here.
They are currently working on their debut album to release in summer of 2025.

Till next time, stay scared!
