Creeper releases new song ‘Blood Magick (It’s a Ritual)’ from upcoming ‘Sanguivore II: Mistress of Death’

Creeper is bringing more horror rock in with their latest single ‘Blood Magick (It’s a Ritual)’. With a video bringing everything you’d want and love from the band it comes from the bands upcoming ‘Sanguivore II: Mistress of Death’ which releases on no other day than Oct. 31st.

This single continues the story line that the band build with the first released single.

William Von Ghould introduces the story, saying,”Beneath the flashing neon of a distant dream, a rock and roll nightmare is coming true. A vampire band rampages across 1980s America, leaving only corpses behind. But on the horizon, a shadow stirs. Part-slasher, part-Satanic Panic nightmare, a new force rises through the mist, ready to hunt the hunter. The Mistress Of Death is a vampire huntress on a path to end this vampire bloodline for good. But can she stake their hearts before the final curtain falls?”

Creeper play the role of the fictional band on a record which is razor sharp with demonic power and devilish black humor. It’s a sequel in which the band summon the spirits of rock history, darting between harmonic and dueling guitars from co-founder Ian Miles and new recruit Lawrie Pattison that recall the majesty of Priest and Maiden. They soar through towering hooks that channel the biggest hits of the stadium rock era with their maximalist sound encompassing darkwave synths, art-rock sax, and multi-layered vocal harmonies.

After the frenetic punk thrills of “Headstones” and the video which first introduced Creeper as the fictional band on stage in full theatrical chaos, the new “Blood Magick (It’s A Ritual)” visual shifts the focus to the hedonism and evil happening behind the scenes while they’re on tour. Directed by Harry Steel, it blends original footage with curated stock to capture the grimy surrealism of Rob Zombie’s House of 1000 Corpses and the fever dream energy of Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers.
