Dark Divine releases debut full-length ‘Deadly Fun,’ shares ‘Cold’ video

Hard rock band Dark Divine has released its debut full-length, “Deadly Fun,” via Thriller Records and shared a music video for the new single “Cold.”

“‘Cold’ is a song about acknowledging when love is not present in a relationship,” vocalist Anthony Martinez said. “There comes a point in any unhealthy relationship where one realizes that things aren’t healthy. This song is meant to captivate the emotion and liberation of acknowledging that someone is bad for you and cutting them out of your life.”

“Deadly Fun” plays with themes of the fear of different types of death from emotional, spiritual and literal. Dark Divine explores anxious feelings throughout worry and doubt as it creates graveyard storylines laced in the mystery of a freak-show funhouse.

“Each song has its own message, but the whole album is based on different individuals’ fear of literal, spiritual, or emotional death,” Martinez said. “It explores what it’s like going through daily life and never knowing what’s around the corner, down a hallway, or in the basement. Like walking through a mystery funhouse or a creepy carnival. It’s fun but also terrifying at times. Without that fear, everything would be taken for granted.”

1. Deadly Fun
2. Drown
3. Cold
4. Terrifier
5. Dancing Dead
6. Paper Crown (feat. Bryan Kuznitz of Fame on Fire)
