Share this article Share
The Marquis is Dead is the avant-garde industrial-metal project of Brussels-based multidisciplinary musician Dillon Steele, known for his feral fusion of doom-drenched riffs, heavy electronics, and custom-forged percussion. A radical evolution from his earlier incarnation The Marquis, the project has reshaped into something raw, heavier, and unmistakably physical.
The debut full-length Dark Age arrives in 2025 via cult Belgian label Antibody — a dense, groove-driven record drawing from industrial metal, sludge, noise, and techno. Now joined live by Reshma Goolamy (Neptunian Maximalism), The Marquis is Dead delivers a hard-hitting duo that bridges the electronic underground and the metal avant-garde with unrelenting intent.
