The vision of Louisiana-born and Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Dennis R. Sanders, SPIRIT IN THE ROOM unfurls through cigarette smoke, cheap booze, and distortion like an anachronistic fever dream soundtracked by a collision of gothic vocal hues, immersive alternative architecture, and jarring metallic catharsis. It’s scary at times. It’s sad at other times. If you ever wondered what goes on in the head of a film noir hitman, horror novel asylum inmate, or a golden age silver screen villain, it might sound something like SPIRIT IN THE ROOM.
SPIRIT IN THE ROOM’s released their Passengers EP in 2024. The offering includes three previously unreleased tracks (“Creepy Phone Calls,” “Show Me You,” and “Covenant”) as well as three additional tracks (“I Have A Heart,” “Affectionate Projectile,” “You Caught Hell”) that have been released throughout the years on YouTube, Bandcamp, and SoundCloud but never before available as a proper collection.
Find orders for SPIRIT IN THE ROOM’s Passengers EP at Bandcamp at THIS LOCATION and additional merch at the Housecore Records webshop at THIS LOCATION.

SPIRIT IN THE ROOM remains comfortable in the dark. Audiences initially met Sanders as part of Black Light Burns. However, he introduced SPIRIT IN THE ROOM during 2010 before revealing a series of projects: The Holy Phobia, Pt. 1 EP (2014), Demon (2015), and Spirit In The Room, Vol. 1 EP (2019), in between various singles and countless shows. SPIRIT IN THE ROOM released their Flamingo EP in 2022 via Housecore Records.
Maximum Volume Music hailed, “…a blistering heavy garage-come-industrial metal banger,” while Distorted Sound wrote, “we experience a whole range of feelings from paranoia to obsession that make Flamingo what it is: a musically progressive record with Sanders more than ready to take risks along the way.” In 2023, SPIRIT IN THE ROOM served as support for Pantera on four shows in the Western US.
