WEDNESDAY 13 have announced a new album!
Titled Mid Death Crisis, the upcoming album from the Duke Of Spook is the follow-up to and is the follow-up to 2022’s Horrifier, and is scheduled to be released in year’s album name, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Napalm Records.
Produced by guitarist Alex Kane [LIFE, SEX & DEATH, ENUFF Z’NUFF, ANTIPRODUCT] and mixed by Steve Evetts [THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, PRONG, DEVILDRIVER] the album intends to display infectious 80s sleaze metal energy, further accented by a blitzing guest vocal from FASTER PUSSYCAT’s Taime Downe.
Alongside the announcement of the new album, WEDNESDAY 13 has released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; When The Devil Commands.
Speaking about the new song, Wednesday tells us, “growing up in the 80s, I remember the satanic panic of heavy metal music and parents’ concern over what their kids were listening to. My mother was constantly checking my cassettes and making sure I wasn’t possessed by the devil. Most of the music that I listened to never had any of those themes, but they were just accused of it. So when writing the lyrics to this song, I wrote what I thought would terrify my mother if she had stumbled upon this music. I wanted the lyrics to be upfront and leave no question as to what they were about… the Devil. This song is done in a fun spirit, and we don’t plan on burning any churches in the future.”
