Hailing from Nashville, TN, DEMON KING aims to be one of the reigning champs of the death metal world. With its formation in 2019, former ENFOLD DARKNESS frontman and prominent guitarist Matt Brown came out of an early retirement to bring the riffs once again. He was promptly joined by technical wizards Malcolm Pugh (INFERI, A LOATHING REQIUEM) on bass and Jack Blackburn (ex-INFERI, ex-VITAL REMAINS) on drums. In 2021, DK inked a deal with extreme metal record label THE ARTISAN ERA, and shortly after the signing, the trio dropped their first EP, THE FINAL TYRANNY, which was welcomed to popular as well as critical acclaim. After it’s release, drummer Jack Blackburn decided it was time to part ways with the project, but by 2022, the group had picked up masterful drummer Chason Westmoreland (ex-THE FACELESS, ex-HATE ETERNAL, ex-BURNING THE MASSES) as they were entering the studio for their next recording effort. Entitled VESANIA, Demon King’s second studio production is an expansion and elaboration upon the style established on their The Final Tyranny EP, and it’s set to be released worldwide through The Artisan Era on March 10, 2023. With the heaviest of hitters on board and proper support garnered, Demon King is poised for the most brutal of aural assaults.
