Het voelt alweer als een hele tijd geleden dat Beast In Black nog eens nieuwe muziek uitbracht. Nu brengt de band daar gelukkig weer verandering in! Deze nieuwste, Enter The Behelit, is een samenwerking met niets minder dan Diablo! Als je een beetje bekend bent in de gaming wereld, zal die naam ongetwijfeld een belletje doen rinkelen. Verder is het weer een typisch BIB nummer met een zeer hoog dans- en energiegehalte. Stilzitten terwijl je hiernaar luistert is dus absoluut geen optie! Of dit ook betekent dat er een nieuw album aan zit te komen, is momenteel nog onduidelijk, maar we kunnen hopen natuurlijk.
Ter info
28th April 2025 - Today marks the epic convergence of three cultural titans: DiabloĀ®, the critically acclaimed franchise that defined the Action RPG genre; acclaimed manga, Berserk; and Finnish heavy metal band, BEAST IN BLACK, who have collaborated to launch an exclusive track 'Enter The Behelit.'Ā Releasing on limited-edition vinyl and worldwide digital distribution, a music video debuts today as well to mark the unleashing of this unholy event.
The crossover event with Berserk ā the beloved, classic manga written and illustrated by Kentaro Miura ā will take place in DiabloĀ® IV and its mobile instillation, Diablo Immortal, beginning May 6 and May 1 respectively. Both Diablo and Berserk explore themes of good versus evil against a backdrop of terrifying darkness, making this crossover a perfect match for fans.
The limited-edition maxi single will feature a brand-new song āEnter The Behelitā from BEAST IN BLACK, inspired by Berserk and produced exclusively for the game, as well as remastered versions of fan favourite tracks āDie By The Bladeā from the album From Hell With Love,Ā and āThe Fifth Angelā from the bandās debut album, Berserker. With many songs taking inspiration from Berserk story and characters, the Finnish heavy metal band's music often reflects the undercurrents of struggle, fighting against overwhelming odds, and battling inner demons ā themes that are prevalent in the games of the Diablo franchise.
Two hundred maxi singles have been lathe cut on black and red marbled vinyl and feature artwork from Diablo IV and Diablo Immortal, all created hand in hand the Diablo art team and the Berserk IP holders. The front of the vinyl heroes Diablo IV, while the back features key art from Diablo Immortal. The vinyl also includes a turntable zoetrope slipmat, band stickers, behind the scenes negative photos and concept art from the Diablo IV development team behind the Berserk partnership.
"The essence that swells in boundless volumes from the juxtaposition of light and darkness, angels and demons, good and evil, the carnal and the spiritual, is the key that seamlessly binds together the aesthetics and narratives of Diablo, Berserk and Beast In Blackāā, said Anton Kabanen, guitarist and songwriter on BEAST IN BLACK."To somewhat poetically reflect on this extraordinary yet congruous collaboration I can say it feels almost as if this newborn and destined-to-be trinity has been designed by the God Hand itself. On behalf of Beast In Blackās team I express our sincerest gratitude to the dedicated teams at Blizzard, Berserk and Nuclear Blast. Thank you for making this happen. And finally, my individual acknowledgement and bottomless gratitude goes - as always - to Kentaro Miuraāā.
