Emerging from the graveyard dirt of the underground, Dead Idols are a Horrorcore duo hellbent on fusing blood-soaked storytelling with raw street energy. The group consists of Swivel Dirty, hailing from Laurens, South Carolina, and Crimson Black, representing Jackson, Michigan.
Swivel Dirty grew up on horror flick marathons and the snarling sounds of punk rock and rap’s most vicious voices. His influences stretch from the Misfits and Rancid to Insane Clown Posse, Necro, Cypress Hill, Onyx, and Three 6 Mafia. With a delivery that mixes gutter grime, horror imagery, and gangsta grit.
Crimson Black, takes his cues from the theatrical and the brutal. Inspired by the macabre visions of Rob Zombie, the Horrorcore sounds of Insane Clown Posse and Twiztid and the hardcore rap of Notorious BIG and Redman, Crimson paints his verses with gore drenched violence. His style relentless, heavy, and cinematic.
