Goodbye from Nowhere by The Sweet Kill

Written for a lover lost yet the connection remains. What was, will never be, does anyone ever know when it’s too late to say Goodbye? Despite their absence Goodbye is a call to the world of what the heart is bleeding to cry. Art is wrought with tragedy when icons fall prey to addiction, overdose or taking their own lives. Once gone their loved ones struggle to make sense of why it had to come to this. To provoke conversation that questions and exposes the social stigma attached to addiction and portraying a myriad of emotions of loving someone, slowly losing them, and feeling the pain of never being able to talk to them again. The purpose of this song is to identify the problem so solutions can be embraced.

Los Angeles post-punk band THE SWEET KILL, helmed by Pete Mills, stands as a gothic-rock tour-de-force, a dark presence in a world of cold wave synths and brooding guitars. His voice, like a haunting refrain, pulls at the heartstrings, evoking the desolate beauty of a long-lost romantic era echoing the laments of London After Midnight, Sisters of Mercy and Joy Division.
