Death Dealer Union unleash their new album, Dark Sister, marking a major new chapter for the Los Angeles-based metal band as their audience continues to grow worldwide.
Produced by Max Morton, Dark Sister delivers a powerful evolution of Death Dealer Union’s sound, bringing together crushing guitars, commanding vocals, dark atmosphere and cinematic intensity across an album built to hit just as hard on stage as it does on record.
The release arrives amid significant momentum for the band. Death Dealer Union recently surged past 30,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, as new listeners continue to discover the band and its expanding catalog.
Fronted by Kay Bellows, alongside guitarist Doug Weiand, bassist Brice Snyder and drummer CC McKenna, Death Dealer Union have continued to carve out their own identity through a combination of heavy modern production, memorable songwriting and an unmistakably dark visual world.
The album campaign was launched with “Cult of the Moonlight,” offering the first glimpse into the world of Dark Sister. With the album now arriving in full, Death Dealer Union are continuing the campaign with “Spellbound Machine,” further expanding the sound and imagery surrounding the record.
Working with producer Max Morton, the band pushed the new material toward a massive, detailed sonic landscape while retaining the raw energy at the center of Death Dealer Union.
Dark Sister also arrives as Death Dealer Union enters an ambitious new phase beyond the studio.
The band recently signed with DNA Entertainment Collective for global booking representation, joining forces with Andrea Toler-Wade as they prepare to bring the new album to audiences on stage.
“Death Dealer Union has a powerful sound, strong vision and undeniable presence,” says Toler-Wade.
The band will celebrate Dark Sister with a Los Angeles album release show at The Viper Room on October 8, followed by additional live dates as Death Dealer Union sets its sights on an expanding touring schedule.
