Moonskin - Lycanthropy Single

by Moonskin

"Imagine walking through a dark, pine scented, tangled forest at night. A large, sadistic, haunting moon glares down at you through gnarled twisted tree branches. Your hair starts to rise as you hear the far off howl of a lone wolf. You shudder, silently thankful that it is so far off.


The shudder turns to panic as you hear an answering chorus, this time closer, and from all around you. You realize there is something standing outlined in the darkness, watching you from the hill ahead. Something eight feet tall, heavily muscled, and with the head of a wolf………"


The single includes two tracks. The first track, “Lycanthropy” is a Meshuggah-like grinding, energetic, track about Lycanthropy and the bloody, grisly, horror of a werewolf enslaved by the moon’s insatiable bloodlust, rampaging through the darkened woods on a moonlit night causing death and destruction to all he encounters.

The Second track is a cover of HIM’s Soul of Fire. Adding some heavier guitars, brooding tones, lowering the key, and adding some screaming vocals, Moonskin’s rendition of Soul on Fire is sure to please both HIM fans and Melodic Metal Fans alike.
