“Blood Enslaved” – An Insatiable Thirst

Moonskin’s Powerful New Song

Melodic death metal band Moonskin is set to release its haunting new single, “Blood Enslaved,” on August 16th. Echoing the sounds of bands like Dark Tranquillity and Amon Amarth, this chilling track’s vivid lyrics weave a story about vampirism and supernatural terror.

Inspired by the painting “Full Moon Dinner” by Jakub Rozalski, which depicts a female vampire floating over one of its victims, “Blood Enslaved” portrays a story of insatiable bloodlust, drawing parallels to the grip of addiction and its destructive effects.

The track was written and produced by Kris Kolesnikoff, the mastermind behind Moonskin, and mixed and mastered by Mats Eriksson at BoomBridge Studios. The song’s nightmarish and chilling soundscape features the powerful drumming of Nik Molson.

Moonskin is known for creating music that channels the essence of primal human terror, exploring the darkest shadows of the mind and delving into supernatural forces within fantasy and humanity’s soul. The band was founded in 2009 and has released various singles and an EP since its 2017 debut.

In 2023, Moonskin signed with Rexius Records, ready to share more of its dark, immersive soundscapes with the world.

Don’t miss the release of “Blood Enslaved” on August 16th and immerse yourself in its powerful sound and haunting imagery.
