It’s all larger-than-life, darker-than-death, and the best album Creeper have ever recorded.

The Sanguivore album took Creeper's already larger-than-life ambition to new heights, leading to the most intense critical acclaim of their career and culminating in their first arena headline show at London’s OVO Wembley Arena. Historically, the end of one Creeper era sees the band slam the coffin shut as they once again reinvent themselves. But this time, Creeper defy expectations by expanding the previous record’s creative universe, returning with Sanguivore II: Mistress Of Death. 

Sanguivore II: Mistress Of Death is a thematic sequel rather than a direct continuation of the original story. Like a classic horror anthology, it spins a new tale from the same bloodline as the original, this time using its bloodied vampiric heart as the common thread to introduce a brand-new narrative. The tale takes us back to the moral hysteria that was the Satanic Panic and its impact upon the world of ‘80s hard rock and heavy metal. It was a time in which the late Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, and Judas Priest were dogged by court cases. Iron Maiden played deep into America’s heartland, while W.A.S.P. and Mötley Crüe inflamed conservative minds with outrageous theatricality and decadence. 

As with the original, Sanguivore II: Mistress Of Death was produced by Tom Dalgety (Ghost, Rammstein, Royal Blood).
