'''Dead Can Dance''' is an Australian music duo from [[Melbourne]]. Currently composed of [[Lisa Gerrard]] and [[Brendan Perry]], the group formed in 1981 and relocated to London the following year. Australian music historian [[Ian McFarlane]] described Dead Can Dance's style as "constructed soundscapes of mesmerising grandeur and solemn beauty; [[Music of Africa|African]] [[polyrhythm]]s, [[Celtic music|Gaelic folk]], [[Gregorian chant]], [[Middle Eastern music]], [[mantra]]s, and [[art rock]]."<ref name="McF">{{cite book |last=McFarlane |first=Ian |author-link=Ian McFarlane |year=1999 |title=[[Encyclopedia of Australian Rock and Pop]] |chapter=Encyclopedia entry for 'Dead Can Dance (DCD)' |chapter-url=http://www.whammo.com.au/encyclopedia.asp?articleid=261 |publisher=[[Allen & Unwin]] |location=[[St Leonards, New South Wales|St Leonards, NSW]] |isbn=1-86508-072-1 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040628015739/http://www.whammo.com.au/encyclopedia.asp?articleid=261 |access-date=14 April 2013|archive-date=28 June 2004 }}</ref>
