Born of the ashes of former project Omega, frontman Needless and bassist Ruby went on to create the band Needless Cane.
Surviving countless line-up changes with only N.Cane remaining as the constant member.
Following the reunion with former Omega drummer Emlyn James (The Grem) it took a new turn when Cane hooked up with bassist turned guitarist Morgandrogyny. Together the horrible trio would explore new territory in gothic industrial metal in their new hometown of Wellington New Zealand.
And now Needless Cane has joined forces with Jeremy Garner in 2017 to form their debut collaborative album: "Sick World".
Prior to this album, Jeremy had been their guitarist throughout 2007 while still in New Zealand, and then ten years later the duo reconnected over the internet to produce a full album together. From darker conceptual metal songs such as "Pale Fire (And the Corpse of Love)" and the title track "Sick World" to slower dreamy gothic songs with dark narrations like "Goddess of the Black Moon", to the more melodic, emotional, and acoustic songs such as "Identity Crisis", this album has a great variety of creative genres and styles throughout it, for the listener to explore.
Their follow up album "The Red Masquerade" was released in 2020, as a 70 minute experience, taking their creative collaboration to a whole new level, exploring themes related to the red death, phantoms, theaters, masks, demons, ghosts, dark magic, the occult, flames, and bottomless pits.
