Metal Anarchy

Dark Divine have premiered a new song titled “Midnight Masquerade.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Undead Melody,” which will be released on May 29. Vocalist Anthony Martinez commented:

“’Midnight Masquerade’ came about in a very interesting way. While on tour, I was listening to a podcast about elite, secret society parties and their cult-like activities. The idea of desperation to be somebody resulting in one casting aside their humanity and morality was such a disturbing concept to me that it stuck in my head until it came time to hit the studio. On that drive I had also drawn many parallels between concepts of these secret society parties with the lyrics of my favorite song of all time, ‘Hotel California.’ Many people believe that song to be about drugs, but I now believe that song could have been written in a much more literal sense. ‘Midnight Masquerade’ is essentially my homage to ‘Hotel California’ through the lens of secret, elite, ‘Eyes Wide Shut’-esque gatherings.”
