Rising heavy rock collective THE DEVIL’S BLIND HORSE have revealed their electrifying new single, “Dragon,” on all major streaming platforms. Alongside this highly anticipated release, the band has dropped a gripping lyric video, available now on YouTube: Watch the lyric video here.
“Dragon,” described as a mid-tempo, riff-heavy powerhouse, is the first release from THE DEVIL’S BLIND HORSE, a project driven by the creative vision of guitarist, producer, writer and founder Alex Knoll. The track features the band’s signature fusion of hard rock, metal, and progressive elements, topped with the soulful energy of vintage Hammond organ and Mellotron.
“THE DEVIL’S BLIND HORSE is an unabashed celebration of all of the things that I love about music” says Alex – adding: “It is the journey in pursuing the music that I hear in my head… It’s my definition of that perfect collection of sounds and songs, artistically earnest and uncompromising, from beginning to end.”
The track showcases an all-star lineup of musicians, including VK Lynne’s commanding lead vocals, Rikard Zander’s (EVERGREY) keys, Johan Niemann’s (EVERGREY) thunderous bass, and Dicki Fliszar’s (BRUCE DICKINSON) propulsive drumming.
“Dragon” marks the beginning of an exciting chapter for The Devil’s Blind Horse. The group is already gaining buzz for their forthcoming EP, “…Alas, we ride…”, expected to drop in 2025.
Knoll, a veteran of the Los Angeles metal scene with a storied past in 999 Society and a brief stint in SPINESHANK, has crafted a unique soundscape with THE DEVIL’S BLIND HORSE. Drawing inspiration from legends like BLACK SABBATH, DEEP PURPLE, ROBIN TROWER, GRAVEYARD and OPETH, the band’s music transports listeners to a golden era of rock and roll, imbued with fresh energy and innovation.
