The Necromancers hail from Poitiers in Western France, making them one of the relatively few non-American bands on Ripple. The success of their debut album vindicated Severin’s decision to sign them without any previous history. “I have a certain pride with that one. I think the first song that I heard from them was ‘Black Marble House,’” Severin says. “I was like, ‘Fuck, what is this? Who are these guys?’ They had no followers on Facebook. I just loved it. I had to pull that one out. I consider that to be a special moment, when you’re signing a band, and you announce it, and nobody knows who they are. And now they’ve gone on to become one of our biggest bands.”
