CREEPER’s Sanguivore proved to be their most career-defining album to date, propelling them to their biggest headline show at the OVO Wembley Arena.
Their new album SANGUIVORE II: MISTRESS OF DEATH, which will be released on Halloween (October 31) goes deeper into that narrative. After enamoring devotees and newcomers alike with the double shot of tracks “Headstones”and “Blood Magick (It’s A Ritual),” CREEPER continue to cast a spell of anticipation with the new single “Prey For The Night.”
NEW ALBUM SANGUIVORE II: MISTRESS OF DEATH OUT ON OCTOBER 31 — PRE-ORDER
Throwback darkwave synth stabs flail into the darkness as“Prey For The Night” gets underway, with William von Ghould’s sinister baritone setting the scene. From there, it becomes a characteristically lavish and larger-than-life sound, blending classic ’80s hard rock riffage, a searing Steinman-esque chorus, theatrical vocal interplay with keyboardist Hannah Greenwood, and a blast of saxophone. Even the title is possessed by a devilishly dark double meaning.
