Brazilian artist Amphettamine, the solo project of Amandha Ribaski, has released her newest single: a powerful and visceral version of “Romeo’s Distress,” a classic by the iconic deathrock band Christian Death. This release marks the third cover in a series that precedes the artist’s anticipated second full-length album, consolidating her unique artistic vision in the darkwave and gothic scene.
“Romeo’s Distress” has always held a special place in Amandha Ribaski’s personal repertoire, profoundly influencing her compositions and her perception of music. For the artist, music transcends mere entertainment or consumption, being a pure art form, devoid of commercial concerns or the need to follow stereotypes.
“To do something pure, from the heart and with sincerity” is the motto that guides Amphettamine, and “Romeo’s Distress” perfectly encapsulates this philosophy.Based in Curitiba, Amphettamine has stood out for her authentic approach and for revisiting classics that shaped her musical identity.
Previous releases include covers of “Anesthesia” (Type O Negative) and “Total Eclipse of the Heart” (Bonnie Tyler), which have already demonstrated the artist’s ability to reinterpret works with a darkwave, gothic rock, post-grunge, and industrial flair, maintaining the original essence and adding her own intensity.
This new single is not just a tribute, but an artistic statement. The choice of “Romeo’s Distress” reflects Amphettamine’s deep connection with the message and sound of Christian Death, a band that is a fundamental reference in her musical journey.
The cover promises to deliver a sonic experience that resonates with the sincerity and passion that define Amandha Ribaski’s work. The single “Romeo’s Distress” is now available on all digital platforms.
