Swedish horror outfit OPERA DIABOLICUS are now releasing the second haunting track of their upcoming full length ‘Death on a Pale Horse’! The new offering will be released upon the masses on November 26, 2021 and the track ‘Siren’s Call’ can now be heard via the official Season of Mist YouTube channel HERE. The link is available for immediate publication.
OPERA DIABOLICUS comment on the track: “Inspired by the ancient Greek mythology creature ‘the Siren’, this Epic Doom Metal ballad really showcases the diversity of the songs on the upcoming album ‘Death on a Pale Horse’. Perhaps this tune is also the answer to the question what would happen if you’d make a witches’ brew by blending equal parts CANDLEMASS and Swedish 1800th balladeer Carl-Michael Bellman and after that top it with a little bit of QUEEN. Who knows? “

Listen everybody, bring out OPERA DIABOLICUS! The Swedish combo have created the perfect horror musical with a little help from their friends Mats Levén (Candlemass, Therion, Skyblood), Snowy Shaw (King Diamond, Mercyful Fate, Therion, Notre Dame), Andy La Rocque (King Diamond) and Michael Denner (King Diamond, Mercyful Fate)! With ‘Death on a Pale Horse’, the Swedes bring you an epic tale of witchcraft, the black death and revenge!
Established by the two antagonists David Grimore and Adrian de Crow in Gothenburg in the mid-2000s, Swedish horror entity OPERA DIABOLICUS seeks to scourge the earth with their music, mischief, and schemes!
Through burning hatred and mutual dislike to one another and with one prior album released under their belt (entitled †1614, released 2012), they’ve now conjured their sophomore offspring with music that could be described as epic horror metal, and thus would greatly appeal to fans of acts like KING DIAMOND, CANDLEMASS, MERCYFUL FATE and so forth.
With a little help from their friends, whom brilliantly have assisted with their tools of their trade, plus the eminent Jens Bogren’s (OPETH, SEPULTURA, ROTTING CHRIST, DIMMU BORGIR) mixing and mastering skill, the result speaks for itself.
