THE HALO EFFECT shares cover of Danzig classic “How the Gods Kill”

13-01-2025
After the highly successful release of their second album March of the Unheard in January 2025 and their celebrated first European headlining tour, melodic death metal stars THE HALO EFFECT return with a powerful interpretation of DANZIG’s iconic track ‘How the Gods Kill’—originally released on the classic 1992 album Danzig III: How the Gods Kill.
Watch ‘How the Gods Kill’ below.
This cover version was handpicked by front man Mikael Stanne, who shares:
“During my teenage years the darkness and allure of the early Danzig albums introduced me to a whole new way of thinking about what rock and metal could be. Glenn’s vocals and lyrics were also incredibly influential on this aspiring vocalist/lyricist.”
