The undisputed Duke of Spook, WEDNESDAY 13 is set to unleash his 9th studio album, Horrifier on 7th October via his new label home, Napalm Records. Pre-orders & pre-saves are available now.
Showcasing a blend of styles plucked from the band’s 20-year career, Horrifier weaves an underlying sonic thread reminiscent of WEDNESDAY 13’s roots – a raucous blend of ballistic metal and macabre heavy rock that’ll thrill new and diehard fans alike. As ever, various tracks on the album are inspired by classic horror flicks, this time circling cult-favourite slasher John Carpenter’s Halloween and the iconic Christine supernatural thrillers.
Get a first listen to Horrifier with the album’s first single, You’re So Hideous, which is accompanied by an Exorcist-inspired official music video.
WEDNESDAY 13 tells us;
“’You’re so Hideous’ is such a catchy track and it’s one of the very first ones I wrote for the album. Lyrically, it’s a modern day Medusa story… Beware the stare into her eyes. The music video was of course inspired by The Exorcist film and was a lot of fun recreating that.”
Horrifier was produced and recorded by WEDNESDAY 13 with mixing and mastering by Brent Clawson, and features stunning album artwork by Jonny Bush. A dynamic journey into the 20-year career-spanning sound of WEDNESDAY 13, Horrifier revitalizes with something for every listener to latch onto – boasting intensely fun horror punk energy with gruesome metallic attitude!
WEDNESDAY 13 offers about Horrifier:
“The last three releases have seen the band explore new ground with heavier songs, drums, and vocals. Coming out of the Covid crisis, I promised I would not release a sad, depressing record. I wanted to make a fun, horror themed rock record that would be reminiscent of the first few WEDNESDAY 13 records. The new album is a fun, fast-paced, thriller!”
