- Debut Album after their critically acclaimed EP, Satan's Tomb by the legendary guitar duo from MERCYFUL FATE! Album cover painted by Swedish artist Thomas Holm [!]
Twin guitar lengends of Mercyful Fate Michael Denner & Hank Shermann have completed the mixing and mastering of their new Denner / Shermann full-length album, Masters of Evil - to be released by Metal Blade Records on June 24th. The album cover was painted by Swedish artist Thomas Holm, who also created the Satan's Tomb artwork - and who is very well known amongst fans for his standout pieces over the past three decades! The mixing was once again handled by Arnold Lindberg at Sound Industry Studio in Gothenburg, Sweden - who engineered their critically acclaimed EP, Satan's Tomb.
Masters Of Evil contains 8 new Denner / Shermann tracks that continue right where the EP left off. Building upon the musical foundation of the Satan's Tomb EP, these songs cover the entire gamut of heavy metal nuances and take the listener down a mysterious path where tales of dark, supernatural fantasies are told, transporting you to places that can only be found in the most vivid, blood curdling nightmares.
Masters Of Evil is fully loaded to satisfy the old fans with just what they would expect - and also injected with menacing, sinister, new surprises that could only come from the sonic DNA of Michael Denner and Hank Shermann.
