Death Dealer Union was birthed into reality when CC McKenna (drums) and Doug Weiand (lead guitars) met and decided their musical journey would be to align their diverse metal influences together. Adding Elena Cataraga (vocals) to the fold, the trio would add Hunter Havok (rhythm and lead guitars) and Jonny Heinz (bass) and head into the studio with producer Valentin Voluta.
The result of the amalgamation of talent?
The debut album, Initiation, out September 22 on Napalm Records.
With the announcement of the album, Death Dealer Union also released their single, “The Vow of Silence”.
On the song and video, the band says,
‘The Vow of Silence’ is an upbeat song, blending heavy/melodic harmonies with both aggressive and clean vocals. The video was shot in a historic castle in Los Angeles, CA dating back to the 1800s, and perfectly fits the image of the band and the vibration of the song.
