Corlyx Sink Their Teeth Into the Darkness with “Your Heart In The Serpent’s Mouth”

Corlyx return with another darkly seductive transmission, pushing their post-punk and darkwave identity forward with the newly released single “Your Heart In The Serpent’s Mouth.”

A New Bite From Corlyx

Corlyx have released their latest single, “Your Heart In The Serpent’s Mouth,” arriving August 20 through Out Of Line Music and continuing a particularly active chapter for the Brighton-based dark alternative outfit.

Built around the creative partnership of vocalist/songwriter Caitlin Stokes and guitarist/producer Brandon Ashley, Corlyx have spent years carving out their own territory between darkwave, post-punk, new wave, gothic rock, and what the band has increasingly defined as Death Pop. Their latest release carries that identity forward under a title that sounds unmistakably at home in the Corlyx universe—romantic, dangerous, and wrapped in gothic imagery.

Corlyx Keep the Darkness Moving

“Your Heart In The Serpent’s Mouth” follows a steady run of new material from Corlyx, including 2026 singles “Sweeter Than Blood” and “More Anarchy.” The new track also extends the momentum surrounding the band following their expansive 2025 album Purple Pain.

Originally formed in Los Angeles before relocating to Europe, Corlyx have steadily transformed their early industrial and electronic foundations into a broader sound drawing heavily from the atmosphere of ’80s post-punk and new wave, the rawness of ’90s alternative music, and contemporary darkwave production.

That evolution has helped Corlyx establish an identity that can move between gothic melancholy and dancefloor energy without becoming trapped inside either. Their growing catalog has also included collaborations with artists including Chris Harms of Lord Of The Lost, Blutengel, Massive Ego, Male Tears, and others throughout the international dark alternative scene.

With “Your Heart In The Serpent’s Mouth,” Corlyx add another chapter to that evolution while maintaining the dark romanticism, striking aesthetic, and genre-blurring approach that have become central to the band’s identity.

For a band that has built its world around the collision of beauty, darkness, sensuality, and danger, the serpent appears to have found exactly where the heart belongs.
