Sneakout Records and Burning Minds Music Group are pleased to reveal the details of My Darkest Red’s debut album, “Midnight Supremacy”.
My Darkest Red is a new dark'n'roll band founded by musicians from two early 2000s bands, Poisonheart and Dreamhunter. This new project features a powerful mix of classic hard'n'heavy, inspired by rock icons such as Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, and Iron Maiden. Add in the decadent, dark wave atmosphere of The Sisters of Mercy, HIM, and The 69 Eyes, and you have My Darkest Red.
The band states: "In our previous recording experiences, we’ve never been afraid to experiment. But in this project we combine several genres that are rarely mixed together, to satisfy a wider pool of listeners. We’ll take them on a journey, from dusk till dawn, exploring different moods. From heavier songs to dark ballads, from arena-anthems to gothic atmospheres; the common theme of this album is melody, even on the most aggressive tracks. The lyrics show our love for old horror movies and gothic literature. Our debut album aims to honour the golden era of hard'n'heavy, but with the awareness that we are in 2024. We’re proud of this achievement. For us, it represents a further evolution of our journey as musicians, showing our passion, stubbornness, and love for music."
“Midnight Supremacy” is scheduled for release on September 27, 2024, distributed worldwide by Plastic Head Music Distribution. The CD booklet features the introductory liner notes written by Matteo Piotto (Meltalhead.it). Special guests include Mickey E.Vil (The Mugshots) on keyboards. The album was recorded at Sonic Bang Studio in Isorella (Brescia, Italy) under the guidance of Oscar Burato. The cover artwork was designed by acclaimed Italian photographer Michele Gusmeri (www.michelegusmeri.it).
