The darkwave unit The Cassandra Complex formed in 1980 with Rodney Orpheus and Paul Dillon, a musically inspired duo in search of playing big music events. Andrew Booth, who was formerly a journalist who interviewed The Cassandra Complex, was asked to join the group and The Cassandra Complex was officially a trio rearing the industrial-dance sounds laid underground during the early '80s.
Throughout the '80s, the band was signed to the independent label, Rouska Records. Releasing a set of 12" singles, the Cassandra Complex became a familiar favorite among the goth rock crowd. As the mid-'90s approached, the Cassandra Complex moved to Hamburg, Germany and released a slew of classic releases: Theomania (1988), Satan, Bugs Bunny and Me (1989), Cyberpunx (1990), The War Against Sleep (1991), and Sex & Death (1994). Two years later, the band began working on Wetware, which was released in Fall 2000.
After a few years hiatus pursuing other projects, Orpheus & Booth, with the addition of Hamburg musicians Volker Zacharias and Axel Ermes, started playing live concerts again, once more becoming a popular draw at festivals across Europe. In 2020 they released their first new studio single in 20 years The Crown Lies Heavy on the King, followed by their highly anticipated forthcoming new studio album The Plague, recorded during Covid lockdown.
