About Vampires Everywhere!: Forming in Hollywood, CA Vampires Everywhere! came together under the events of immortality, as lead vocalist Michael Vampire found himself in a collision with a drunk driver causing their van to flip resulting in his death in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. “My teeth exploded causing me to choke on my own blood, they revived me from that.” Says Michael reflecting on the accident. “The doctors said somebody was on my shoulder watching over me during this accident. It led me down a darker path, it was the pushing and driving force behind but I wanted to do.” Michael says regarding the band’s conception.
This incident intertwined with his love of horror films such as “Bram Stoker’s Dracula,” “Fright Night,” and the 1987 cult classic film “The Lost Boys” helped piece the band together. “The name comes from a comic book in “The Lost Boys,” that not many people knew about.” Says Michael on the inspiration behind the name, Vampires Everywhere!. The band mixes worlds of 80’s glam portrayed in Mötley Crüe laced with the new-aged metalcore. They quickly gained notoriety in 2010 with the band’s debut music video “Immortal Love” quickly hitting 1 million views and landed on the iconic MTV Headbangers Ball.
Following the success of “Immortal Love” Vampires Everywhere! joined the Hot Topic Tour in 2010 with Black Veil Brides. The band went on to build an extensive tour history, sharing the stage with artists such as Alesana, Escape The Fate, Falling In Reverse, Motionless In White and more. They were featured on X Japan’s first North American Tour along with playing festivals including Inkcarceration Fest, Van’s Warped Tour, Dark Force Fest, South By SoWhat, HTP Fest and Headlining Rob Zombie’s Great Adventure in Pomona, CA.
The 2021 era of the band has spawned a new generation of Vampires Everywhere! fans.

The song was also featured on the Paramount+ Hit TV Show “Burning Girls” in the UK. “The whole idea of what we’re trying to do is “trying to believe in yourself” and put yourself in a position where you can praise yourself more.” Says Michael explains, “Our music having a darker element to relate to people who may not be happy.” Hear Vampires Everywhere!’s latest single, “White Wedding” now, via Dark Kingdom Records.
