Just days away from kicking off their North American tour with Helsinki Vampires, The 69 Eyes, Wednesday 13 and his boo crew have debuted a new lyric video for "Monster, " a track featuring Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil.
"Monster" is taken from the band's recently released album Necrophaze, one of my personal favorites of 2019.
"'Monster' is the 1st Wednesday 13 song recorded to feature guest vocals. I wanted something different than I had ever tried before and I wanted a female vocalist," said the Duke of Spook, Wednesday 13. "Cristina was the perfect choice for this song. I gave her the lyrics and some minor details, and she came back with what you hear. She totally floored us with her amazing vocal range and adding a new element never heard on one of our songs before."
Cristina Scabbia adds, "This collaboration was born from blackness. Wednesday and I are both fans of the darkest vision of art and music, and when I was asked to sing with him for the song “Monster”, I immediately visualized his concept and shared it with pleasure. What I love about this song is that some people in life are taking the worst out of us… but demonizing it all and pushing away the tension through notes is the best thing to do."
Necrophaze, Wednesday 13's 8th studio album, is available now from Nuclear Blast Records. The album also features special guest appearances from, Alice Cooper, Roy Mayorga (Stone Sour), Alexi Laiho (Children of Bodom) and Jeff Clayton (GG Allin’s Murder Junkies).
