ctrl LIVE: WARFIELD (US)

On Friday, September 19, our stage welcomes WARFIELD - the debut solo venture from She Wants Revenge’s lyricist and frontman, Justin Warfield.

Channelling the spirit of early-’80s Los Angeles deathrock, the moody allure of classic British alternative, and the sleek edge of modern dark wave, Warfield takes familiar echoes from the past and twists them into something unmistakably his own.

Having collaborated, remixed, and featured on songs ranging from Placebo, Depeche Mode, The Chemical Brothers, Kruder and Dorfmeister, Gary Numan, Childish Gambino, The Crystal Method, and others, Justin has also released albums from projects Dream Club, Forever Never Changes, and the 2011 Hip-Hop mixtape, The Black Hesh Cult.

But unlike past projects which were primarily meant to document a moment in time as well as play local shows with friends to celebrate the music, WARFIELD is a proper solo project, both in recording, as well as touring, and in addition to releasing 6 singles and multiple bodies of work in 2025, he will be touring extensively - with a pit stop in Bucharest.

Now, after several lifetimes of music spanning genres, styles, eras, and past lives, Deathrock Devotionals Vol I explores elements of all his past projects, but with an urgent, stripped down, hard, dark, and frenetic energy. Citing influence from Kommunity FK, Siouxsie, early Christian Death, Super Heroines, The Nymphs, Killing Joke, Skeletal Family, The Damned, Xmal Deutschland, as well as evergreen favorites The Smiths, and New Order, WARFIELD embodies the spirit of what’s come before, while pointing a way forward to what’s next.
