Black Nail Cabaret is a dark avant-garde pop duo from Hungary. Formed in 2008, the group consists of Emese Arvai-Illes (vocals) and Krisztian Arvai (keyboards). They are known in particular for their dramatic stage appearance, combining music and art with poetry, costumes and BDSM eroticism. They have been performing live across Europe since their debut in 2010 and in 2020 released the album Gods Verging on Sanity, which has been hailed as their magnum opus.

"Here we have nine tracks showing what you can accomplish if you refuse to limit yourself” - Release Magazine

With reviewers citing nods to Abba, Editors, Lady Gaga, John Foxx, and Vangelis, Sheffield’s Promenade Cinema have been captivating audiences with danceable darkwave and striking multi-layered synthpop vocals since hitting the scene in 2016.
