Black Majesty has released a lyric video for “Dragon Lord”, first single taken from the new album “Oceans Of Black” to be released on June 20 by Scarlet Records.
A noble man, betrayed and cursed, is cast into the depths of the underworld. In the fiery pits of hell, he discovers a newfound power, reborn with the spirit of the dragon. Rising with the fury of a storm, he unleashes fire upon the night sky, igniting it with his wrath. Now, as the Dragon Lord, he will bring terror to those who stand against him.

Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, and formed in 2002, Black Majesty is a bonafide power metal institution. Over the years, they’ve released seven full-length albums and one best-of compilation, establishing themselves as a force within the genre. Throughout their journey, Black Majesty has played numerous live shows across Australia, including headline performances and tours with some of the world’s biggest metal acts, such as Helloween, Saxon, Blind Guardian, DragonForce, Symphony X, Edguy, and Paul Di’Anno, among many others. The band has also made its mark in Asia and Europe, performing at iconic festivals like Wacken Open Air, Masters Of Rock, and Headbangers Open Air, alongside numerous club shows, both as support and headliners.
With soaring melodic vocals & catchy hooks, a ferocious twin axe attack and a thunderous rhythm section to match, “Oceans Of Black” is a power metal voyage through fear, corruption, hope, strength, resilience and triumph. The new album of the Aussie veterans takes the listener far and wide, and yet stays firmly true to the classic power metal code. A fearless ride through darkness and despair – hope and strength are always just behind the corner for those who dare to reach for it. A journey only for the brave, “Oceans Of Black” knows no fear or self-doubt: roll the dice, live your life and stay true to yourself!
Back with a vengeance, Black Majesty is now ready to bring their signature sound to fans worldwide once again.
