AMULET 🦇
Signed to Distortion Productions, Amulet is bass-driven, electro-industrial rock known for their powerful female vocals, bass-foward melodic music, and emotionally charged performances. With a unique blend of pounding electronic beats, ethereal melodies, and driving hard rock elements, Amulet captivates audiences with a sound that is intense and deeply personal. It’s the kind of music that demands attention.
Fronted by the mesmerizing vocals of Stephanie Stryker and the music of multi-instrumentalist MJ Phoenix, the band’s music explores themes of love, loss, and the supernatural, weaving poetic lyrics with rich, atmospheric arrangements and powerful hooks.
Formed in the heart of the United States’ capital city of Washington, DC, Amulet has built a loyal following with their magnetic live performances and immersive, dark aesthetic. Drawing influence from genres such as goth rock, dark wave, industrial metal, post-punk, hard rock, and even neo-folk, the band’s sound defies easy categorization, appealing to fans of both electronic and rock music.
