Skip the euphoric, sugar rush atmosphere you’d get with a mainstream polish, this is SLEEPNOWQUEEN’s “Black Rose” to claim the dance floor with a flashing, velvet-slick pulse, and midnight bite.
SLEEPNOWQUEEN is a Kansas-based alternative experimental artist known for their distinct dissection of 80s music through their style, drawing heavy inspiration from the sound of bands like The Cure. Now, SLEEPNOWQUEEN is back on the stage with Black Rose, weaving a dark wave alternative club sound meant for dance nights and crowded rooms.

Black Rose gives you something like a silhouette tip-toeing slowly in the dark right from the start. Every layer and element in the track points to a dark, shadowy groove that fills up the room like smoke. It’s not just hypnotic, it’s almost poisonous from the way it echoes.
Lyrically, the line, “you are a black rose ever since I met you,” feels less like admiration and more like desire and obsession. A body that moves like a snake and silent words triggered through an electrifying eye contact feels like a night that flowed through impulse.
If you want your dance club music to feel like a soundtrack for a Wednesday Addams-esque film, SLEEPNOWQUEEN’s Black Rose gives you exactly that as a tribute to being different and standing out.
