Twice Dark

In the neo-gothic realms of Bloomington, Indiana, Josh Kreuzman birthed the spectral music project Twice Dark in 2020. Inspired by the melancholic grandeur of decaying industrial spaces, Twice Dark weaves together goth, industrial, EBM, italodisco, deathrock, coldwave, and darkwave, capturing a haunting elegance reminiscent of a forgotten era.
Post-punk.com describes Twice Dark as being, “dipped in auditory shadows and echoing with the retro resonance of the 1980s music scene...like a phantom reaching out through a fog of time.”
Kreuzman’s artistic roots run deep, having earned a BFA in Sculpture and a Minor in Art History from Indiana University Bloomington in 2005. His band experience dates back to 1992, when he first dabbled in punk bands during high school. In college, he continued experimenting with alternative and punk sounds before transitioning into the indie rock scene, which eventually evolved into the dark, eclectic sound that defines Twice Dark.
In 2022, Kreuzman curated and released the "Midwest Gothic" compilation, a collection featuring bands from across the Midwest. The project was praised as "awesome" and "stacked with talent" by soundandshadows.com. Kreuzman celebrated the project with a live show in Indianapolis in early 2023.
His upcoming 2025 album, 'Telekinetic', promises to take listeners even deeper into his haunting, sonic landscapes, solidifying Twice Dark as a rising force in the world of darkwave and electronic music.
