Let's enter the world of nostalgia and synthwave. On this episode of IUF, we sit down with Davey Oberlin, the creative force behind All The Damn Vampires, to talk about his debut full-length album VICECORE, out now worldwide. The independently released record blends cinematic synthwave, gothic atmosphere, and alternative metal into a sound that feels both immersive and intensely personal.

We dive into Davey’s journey from years of touring as a hired musician to building a project entirely of his own, where he wrote, performed, produced, and mixed the album himself while crafting a complete visual and sonic world around it. Our conversation explores the creative turning points that led to All The Damn Vampires, the influence of his background in animation and visual storytelling, and how those cinematic instincts shaped the atmosphere and pacing of VICECORE.

We also talk about burnout, artistic identity, and what it means to reclaim authorship after years of supporting roles in major acts — as well as where the world of All The Damn Vampires could go next now that VICECORE is out and listeners everywhere can finally step into it.
