Nudity, News & New Patreon Perks

Hello Humans,

I hope your summer is going splendidly and that you’re enjoying the hot weather—most importantly, I hope you’re happy and well.

I’ve been back on the road again, and I wanted to update you on all my news... so grab a cuppa and read on.

🔥 Fetish and Fiery Pants 🔥

Crimson Veil just returned from playing Burning Pants in Germany—a “sex-positive” fetish rock festival.

Here we are backstage before the show, grinning like fools, completely unaware of the number of penises we’re about to behold. Yikes.

Between the nudity, sunburnt Germans, and Pirate Metal, we had a lot of fun... though the journey took its toll.
The drive was over 15 hours each way (including ferries) and totally exhausting.

I'm very happy to be home for a while and finally able to focus on the follow-up album to HEX.

Album title to be revealed soon!

In other news, my bandmate and bestie Hana Piranha is relocating to Spain! ¡maravilloso!
I’m so excited for her and her partner—and for the future holidays at Villa Piranha. 🏡 🇪🇸
You can hear more about her big move in our latest podcast episode, where we chat about music, darkness, and fresh starts in the sun.

New on Patreon: A Private Instagram Channel

During the long travel hours, I started thinking about new ways to bring you even deeper into my weird little world.

We already have a great Discord group where patrons share threads, undiscovered music, pet pics, and memes. If you're not on there yet, you can still join via the link here.

But now... I’m launching a Private Instagram Channel—exclusively just for paying patrons.

(If you're here on a free tier then now might be a good time to upgrade. It's only $1+ per month and you'll get access to ALL the tiers, plus directly contribute to my music).
This idea was inspired by Combichrist (who use theirs to share impromptu livestreams and backstage moments), I realised how much I’d love to do the same—without all the tech hassle and forward planning.

Unlike Streamyard (which I still love), Instagram lets me just grab my phone and hit "share." Easy.

Now I can share spontaneous and exclusive content like:

• Footage from the studio

• Behind-the-scenes at video shoots

• Pre-show nerves and rituals

• Post-show celebrations

• Unpublished photos

• Ask Me Anything

And the best part? You can catch up on all of it in your own time—no need to be online at a specific time or even logged into Patreon.

How to join:

1. Head to @mishkinfitzgeraldpatrons on Instagram and request access.

2. Send me a private message quoting your patreon profile name + tier so I know you’ve read this post 😉

3. Enjoy the content!

Not into Instagram?

Totally fine. You’re not missing out—I’ll still be sharing plenty via Discord, Facebook, Patreon, and my regular livestreams.

Think of this as a “bonus layer,” and not a replacement for anything.

💘 Falling in Love & Other Disasters (starring Garry Mitchell) 💘

Later this month, Garry and I will be sitting down for our first ever honest, unrehearsed interview, not just as band-mates but as a couple.

We’ll talk about how we met, how we started our first band nearly 20 years ago, what kept us going through line-up changes, heartbreaks, near-breakups, and meltdowns—and how we somehow fell in love through it all.

Some of this we’ve never talked about publicly before. But it feels like the right time to share stories behind the music—from Here She Comes A-Tumblin’ all the way to HEX.

🖤 A Cover from The Black Parade 🖤

If all that wasn't enough, Garry and I have loved The Black Parade by MCR for years—it’s been on regular album rotation in our tour van—and there’s one track I’ve wanted to cover on piano.

I’m not giving the title away just yet (because suspense is fun), but I can say this: it’s a true heartbreaker. Any guesses?

🤘 Combichrist Tour Vlog: Part One Incoming 🤘

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to tour with one of the best industrial bands out there—your front-row seat is here.

"Part One" of my tour vlog with Combichrist, Extize, and Esoterik is on the way.

From backstage conversations to violin stage-invasions, I filmed as much of the tour as I could. It’s currently being edited by the amazing Matas—so you know it’ll be a treat.

As always, thank you so much for being here. Your support means the world to me.

Having you guys here as a community is really important, and I hope you’re still enjoying Patreon as much as I am.

Let me know what you think! See you on the new Instagram Channel soon...

Love,
Mishkin x
