Fresh off their 2022 debut singles "Borderlines" and "Beneath The Surface", DEATH DEALER UNION are ready to unleash their first full-length studio album Initiation on September 22, 2203 through Napalm Records.
DEATH DEALER UNION is anchored by veteran L.A. drummer C.C. McKenna and guitarist Doug Weiland, and fronted by their exotic and enchanting vocalist Lena Scissorhands (INFECTED RAIN). Guitarist Hunter Havokk and bassist Jonny Heinz round out the group.
DEATH DEALER UNION delivers a special brand of Gothic Power Metal on their debut Initiation, but also isn't afraid to venture into Thrash, Classic Metal, or Modern Hard Rock.
I had the chance to speak with C.C. McKenna to get the skinny on DEATH DEALER UNION and their latest album. McKenna also discusses how the group was formed & signed to Napalm Records, the contributions of producer Valentin Voluta, their intriguing music videos, the band's plans to tour, whether they foresee any confusion with other Heavy Metal bands that share a similar name, and much, much more.
