Formed through a mutual love of 80’s goth and alternative rock music. Sanctum Santorium are a live 4-piece band that faithfully recreate classic hits by artists such as The Cult, Killing Joke, Sisters of Mercy, The Damned, The Cure, Bauhaus and more. Smoke machines at the ready with the clothes and the attitude.
Visually and musically, they are startlingly accurate. SS deliver a blistering live set from She Sells Sanctuary and Love like Blood through to Bela Lugosi’s Dead & This Corrosion. Dust down your leather jacket and paint your nails and get ready to be transported to The Dark Side of the 80’s.
