“Welcome to the domain of dread known as NECROPALACE. This fortress has kept my memories and nightmares for centuries. Risen from ancient slumber, the curse is once again free to haunt starlit nights. While approaching the icy gates of Castle Ravenblood, a swirling mist begins to form. Phantom figures surround you. Enter if you dare but be warned, the darkness may consume your mortal soul forever. The ultimate evil has returned…”

To further mark the occasion, the band released the new album’s first single “Necropalace” that you can check out below. It features the band’s first-ever music video and they opted for a shirt film style video this time around.
