U.S. electro-industrial act genCAB rises from the depths once more with their haunting new single, “Open Grave,” out now via Metropolis Records. Released on October 31, 2025, this brooding club anthem drags listeners into a confessional spiral of self-sabotage, decay, and emotional dissection—set to a driving, dancefloor-ready beat.

Open Grave (Unsolved Remix by Lost Signal)

Last (Nine Inch Nails cover)

🩸 A Dance with Self-Destruction

“The song explores the decay of our own undoing. I’m a self-destructive person, and ‘Open Grave’ is about lying in my own mess that I create for myself,” confesses David Dutton, the creative force behind genCAB.

Dutton adds, “Most of the advice we get is to keep our inner pain hidden, so we isolate further. This song is me laying that pain bare—for anyone to hear, whenever they need it. It’s more accessible than my past work, but it carries a message that’s universal. Sometimes life is just a dance track and an outlet to lose yourself. Who knows what’s left when you tear yourself apart—but at least it’s honest.”

⚙️ genCAB’s Sonic Evolution

Since their 2008 debut II transMuter, genCAB has been a force in the darker corners of electronic music, expertly merging EBM, synth-pop, and alternative rock. After a long hiatus that saw Dutton and drummer Tim Van Horn touring with Aesthetic Perfection, genCAB returned in 2022 with Thoughts Beyond Words and the Everything You See Is Mine EP—showcasing a renewed energy and emotional intensity.

Their 2023 Metropolis release Signature Flaws introduced dreamlike shoegaze and post-hardcore influences, while 2024’s III I II (THIRD EYE GEMINI) reimagined and expanded upon their earliest material with modern, atmospheric depth. Now, Open Grave continues that evolution—melding catharsis with rhythm, and ruin with revelation.
