Spawned to be a beacon for those lost in the shadows of life, Mills guides listeners with his smooth baritone voice through a sonic terrain stretching over wind-swept moors and past crumbling Gothic ruins. THE SWEET KILL delves deep into the darker chambers of the soul, where despair and longing collide. His voice, like a haunting refrain, pulls at the heartstrings, evoking the desolate beauty of a long-lost romantic era echoing the laments of London After Midnight, Sisters of Mercy and Joy Division.

PRESS QUOTES
“The Sweet Kill continue to put out tracks that are emotional rollercoasters
”
“There’s a lot of pain and angst in The Sweet Kill’s music, and I was ready to get “moody” with Pete and company
”
“Mills has a varied vocal approach that rates among the song’s highlights. He does an excellent job bringing the admittedly dark lyrical content to life, without ever veering melodrama, and the focused writing is key to bringing that off.
”
“If you’re a fan of that post-punk that marked the 1980’s, you need to know the work of The Sweet Kill.
