DEATH SS announce the new studio album “The Entity” and single ‘Dr. Jeckyll & Sister Hyde’
08-11-2024
Italy’s cult heavy rock band DEATH SS will release their new studio album “The Entity” early next year on Lucifer Rising Records. The concept album was produced by mastermind and frontman Steve Sylvester along with the English Grammy winner producer Tom Dalgety (Rammstein, Ghost, The Cult, and others).
The literary inspirations of the 12-song opus range from Aleister Crowley, who seeks to liberate man by awakening his artistic genius, to the characters of writers James Hogg and Robert Louis Stevenson, who explore the dark side of mankind. It also includes figures such as Jack the Ripper, Walter Sickert, Cemetery and others, ultimately linking to the band’s history.
The album will be preceded by four digital singles, released not only digitally but also as 12’ “Limited Deluxe” version.
The first single ‘Dr. Jeckyll & Sister Hyde’ is a powerful dark metal song in pure DEATH SS style, which ironically quotes the 1971 Hammer Production film of the same name. As in the film and the song’s amusing promotional video clip, the story is set in late 19th century London, where Dr. Jekyll, the famous character from Gothic fiction created by the writer Robert Louis Stevenson, gives life to his evil alter-ego Hyde, who however in this case is a woman.
