Kim Dracula

Kim Dracula is the project of a musician from Hobart, Tasmania, whose name comes from a Deftones song. The breakthrough came in 2020, with a metal version of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” that spread across TikTok.

From then on, it settled into a chaotic mix of metal, trap, nu metal and theatricality, with abrupt shifts in vocal register. A Gradual Decline in Morale, from 2023, featured Jonathan Davis, of Korn, and took the project to metal festivals around the world.
