Finland's industrial metal heretics, King Satan, have inked a deal with Noble Demon Records to release their fourth full-length, The Devil's Evangelion, in late 2024. To kick off the excitement surrounding the upcoming release, the band has unleashed the first single/video, "New Aeon Gospel".
"The Devil's Evangelion will be a concept album concentrating on the duality and the paradoxical nature of reality. This concept stems from a trickster-like narrative that becomes convinced about being possessed by the Devil, leading to an experience of reality through the Devil's eyes."
King Satan on the first single: "'New Aeon Gospel' as an opening song depicts beginning of this experience, which in the fashion of paradoxes, might be madness to one and yet moment of catharsis to another. We took a lot influences from old religious anthems, hymns and psalms to compose the album and this song might be one of the strongest examples of this, filtered of course through the means of our brand of extreme metal".
King Satan presents a genre-fluid extreme metal spectacle that fuses electro-industrial, symphonic black metal, and death metal elements with the raw energy of rock'n'roll, emerging as a unique blend between shameless shock rock and chaotic avant-garde theatre.
Founded in late 2015, this genre-fluid group is the brainchild of enigmatic artist King Aleister Satan (Henget, Saturnian Mist), which has evolved from its electro-aggrotech origins into a full-throttle industrial metal band over the years. The act's vision of extreme metal brings forth an anarchistic blend of carnivalesque artistry, absurdist dark comedy, occult intrigue, and in-depth philosophical ponderings, served in an intoxicating mix of rocking dance beats, thought-provoking lyrics, mesmerizing melodies, and addictive hooks the band themselves have titled as "death metal disco" - a fusion fit for both dance floors and mosh pits. With all these elements, the band defies conventions and embraces controversy. King Satan is more than just a mere musical entity; known for its infectious charisma and captivating performances, it's a live experience that electrifies stages and captivates audiences.
King Aleister Satan about the band's future and signing to Noble Demon: "We are absolutely thrilled to announce this devilish pact between King Satan and Noble Demon Records! We really know we are now in the right home at Noble Demon roster as we are not only encouraged to do what we do already but to do that with their full support! Even it might get dirty! And of course, in the world of absurd, it always does. So, indeed, let's get dirty! The Devil's work is never done! Hail Noble Demon Records and Hail Satan! Chaos is the Law!" Link
