Trans-Atlantic electro-goth and industrial duo DEATĦ B¥ LØVE step boldly into the shadows with their debut album 444, a cinematic and emotionally immersive project that blends gothic atmospheres, industrial intensity, trip-hop textures, and evocative Middle Eastern influences into one haunting sonic experience.
Formed by Pittsburgh producer and multi-instrumentalist Peter Guellard and Polish singer-songwriter Inga Habiba, DEATĦ B¥ LØVE exist in a world where spirituality, emotional survival, and dark electronic experimentation collide. Across 11 tracks, 444 explores themes of identity, trauma, transcendence, and rebirth through hypnotic rhythms, distorted electronics, and deeply atmospheric production.
Guellard brings decades of underground dark-electronic experience to the project, having previously worked with acts including The Electric Hellfire Club, Closterkeller, and Blitzkrieg, while Habiba’s spiritually charged vocal presence adds a striking emotional and cultural depth shaped by her multicultural background and years fronting gothic and new-wave bands in Poland.
The duo’s latest single and video, “Cosmic Power,” serves as one of the album’s most captivating moments. Built around brooding trip-hop grooves and expansive synth textures inspired by acts like Morcheeba and Groove Armada, the track reveals a softer and more atmospheric side of DEATĦ B¥ LØVE’s sound without losing its dark emotional core.
“‘Cosmic Power’ is our flagship song,” says Peter Guellard. “We always dreamed of how incredibly cathartic it would be to play music in space, and with this video, that dream finally comes true.”
Lyrically, Inga Habiba describes the song as a meditation on manipulation, seduction, and reclaiming inner strength.
“What begins as a promise of limitless power reveals itself as manipulation, leaving behind a void where trust once lived,” she explains. “Its final truth is stark: real power does not lie in commanding the universe, but in reclaiming ownership of one’s inner world.”
Crafted through months of long-distance collaboration, file-sharing, and trans-Atlantic travel, 444 mirrors the very themes it explores — endurance, distance, vulnerability, and connection. The result is an album that moves seamlessly between extremes, from the cavernous emotional weight of “Strong Inside” and the industrial force of “I Don’t” to the spectral intimacy of “Sellenno” and the dark mysticism of “Temros (Symphonic Mix).”
What ties the project together is not genre, but emotional gravity. DEATĦ B¥ LØVE embraces experimentation freely, allowing industrial aggression, trip-hop melancholy, gothic elegance, and cultural memory to coexist within the same universe.
With 444, the duo deliver more than a debut album. They create an immersive world built on atmosphere, emotion, and transformation — one where darkness becomes both a language and a path toward healing.
