The spellbinding new single “Something Wicked” featuring Zsüd is out now!
Vienna-based ritualistic darkwave pioneers The Devil & The Universe release their haunting new single “Something Wicked”, inspired by Shakespeare’s ominous line from Macbeth:
“By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.“
Steeped in witchcraft and occult atmospheres, the track conjures an sonic experience that beckos listeners into a world of shadows and esoteric rites.
Marking a powerful collaboration with acclaimed Hungarian artist Zsüd, “Something Wicked” weaves her vocals through layers of ritualistic beats and brooding synths, evoking the essence of a witches’ sabbath.
The single follows the band’s recent releases: the sinister, danceable “Beelzebub Unchained”, featuring Aux Animaux, and the ritualistic, „Primordial Temples”—both offering tantalizing previews of the band’s forthcoming album Occult Pleasures, slated for release 19 September.
“Something Wicked” is out now on all major streaming platforms.
