‘Dark Anthems’ – New Single Out Now

This is a song for the outsiders, the dreamers, the fighters — and for everyone who finds strength in the shadows.

‘In Venom’ – New Single Featuring Chris Harms (Lord of the Lost) Out Now
Our final single of 2024 is here — and it’s one of our most powerful collaborations yet.
“In Venom” features a guest vocal performance by Chris Harms of Lord of the Lost — bringing his signature intensity to a track that seethes with obsession, toxicity, and beautiful destruction.
“It’s about the poison you can’t quit, the pull you can’t escape… and the part of you that doesn’t want to.”
— Ben Christo
