King Satan, who provided a real surprise in March with the release of the single Black Magick Rock ‘N’ Roll in collaboration with the blues guitarist Erja Lyytinen, has announced the release date of his upcoming album. The Black Magick Abraxas album, via Nuclear Blast’s Blood Blast Distribution, will be released on November 6th, and now it has a song that may affect metal listeners in a surprising way, like a tunnel to a new world:

“Light of Darkness is industrial metal for people who don’t like industrial metal. And this song probably isn’t even industrial metal. Like probably half of our songs aren’t either. But that’s not important. What is important, of course, is that this song has blast beats and disco beats mixed together. We’re a pretty hard band to categorize, but unfortunately we make music to listen to and not to categorize. In this song too, you can hear influences from symphonic metal, classical music and religious hymns, combined with our rocking industrial metal (which isn’t even industrial metal) and to which you can dance and/or mosh,” King Aleister Satan comments.

King Satan’s “death metal disco” style has freed the band to a very diverse expression, which is also visible in the cover art for the upcoming album designed by M. T. Salminen. The path paved with black humor and the band’s internal “beauty and the beast” theme is a path to develop all kinds of joy. The new joyful single released now reflects King Satan’s common thread, where the sensible thing is that things don’t necessarily make sense.

“Like neither in this music video for this song that I directed, nor in the fact that Donald Duck wears a swimsuit. But we are still able to understand both on some deeper atavistic level of consciousness that modern society has completely forgotten. If only we give ourselves permission. Long live Lucifer!”, King Aleister Satan adds
