History Of Guns Reimagines a Classic with "Little Miss Suicide (25)"

British goth industrial pioneers History Of Guns have released a fresh mix of their classic track Little Miss Suicide (25), celebrating 25 years since its original debut. Drawing inspiration from Joy Division, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, and Killing Joke, the song blends dark lyrical themes with an unexpected major chord chorus, creating a striking contrast between despair and triumph.

Originally written in 1998, Little Miss Suicide explores mental health through an imagined narrative, using irony and sincerity to craft a unique listening experience. While its lyrics address depression and suicide, the song’s major chord chorus injects a surprising sense of triumph, reflecting the band's metamodern approach of mixing contradictions.

The new mix, handled by keyboardist Max Rael and drummer Caden Clarkson, enhances the track with modern production techniques while staying true to its underground roots. The band hopes this version finds a wider audience than its original 2000 release, which struggled due to the limitations of self-released music at the time.

To accompany the release, a new video has been compiled using vintage VHS footage from Earthworks studio in North London. As History Of Guns looks ahead, they are also working on new material and preparing for a return to the stage.
