Born in blood, conceived in Hell, and accidentally reanimated, Toronto, Canada’s horror metal ensemble, Blood Opera, announces the release of their first full-length album “Songs in the Key of Death”, a gripping, grimy descent into the world of gore and madness. Known for their powerful operatic vocals, sleazy guitar riffs, and blasphemous lyrics inspired by some of the scariest movies ever made, has garnered acclaim from none other than the zombie Godfather himself, George A. Romero. The band comments on the devilish feast they are ready to serve:
“Hell is full. The dead are alive. Unlock humanity’s survival from the zombie apocalypse with “Songs in the Key of Death”! We are very proud to present our brand of “dead metal” with special musical and horror guests. We poured our love of all things horror into these songs. This album was made possible by the delicious humans who made it possible with their donations and pre-orders to our crowdfunding campaign. We hope you feast on it in full as we feast on your flesh.”
As the gates of Hell threaten to swing open “Songs in the Key of Death” promises a diabolical journey through the macabre realms of Dead Metal. This album, not for the faint-hearted, weaves together a sinister storyline and transitions, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in the horrifying cinematic landscapes that inspired each track.
“Songs in the Key of Death” is a compilation of the band’s best songs, featuring two new tracks, plus a cover of “Killer Klowns From Outer Space”, and the standalone 2022 single “Be My Victim” ft. Tony Todd (Candyman) as a bonus track. Other album guests included Morgan Lander (Kittie), Maurizio Guarini (Goblin) along with track voice-over guests Adrienne Barbeau (The Fog), Linnea Quigley (The Return of the Living Dead), and Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes, X-Files, Star Trek).
Now available as of February 24, 2024, “Songs in the Key of Death” is a fiendish feeding frenzy that awaits and is highly recommended for fans of Dokken, WASP, and Ghost.
