In a world where the mainstream music industry churns out sterilized hits engineered for algorithms rather than emotion, Moonskin emerges once more from the abyss with Blood Enslaved , their most unflinching and deliberate track to date.
Known for channeling primal human terror through immersive, melodic death metal soundscapes, Moonskin refuses to play by the rules of musical sedation. Their sound is steeped in the dark mysticism of bands like In Flames , Children of Bodom , and Hypocrisy , yet bristles with their own uniquely shadowy, narrative force. This isn't just metal for metal's sake—it's a vessel for reckoning with the darker corners of humanity and the unseen forces that shape it.
"Blood Enslaved is not simply a song," explains Moonskin's vocalist. “It’s a warning. It’s an allegory of vampirism—both literal and symbolic. About those who surrender themselves to corrupted power under the guise of faith, and those corrupted by that power in return. It’s about addiction. Worship. And willful blindness.”
While most of today's charts are populated with what the band calls “clickbait beats and lobotomized lyrics,” Moonskin stands in stark contrast—unafraid to wield complexity, poetry, and anger with surgical precision. “Mainstream execs might celebrate simplicity,” the band adds, “but metal has never been about dumbing it down—it’s about raising the stakes.”
Formed from the eerie edges of the human psyche, Moonskin signed with Rexius Records in 2023 after releasing a string of haunting singles and an EP over the past seven years. With Blood Enslaved , they continue their descent into dark forests, ancient nightmares, and the unlit chambers of the soul.
For those still seeking depth, darkness, and deliberate artistry in their metal, Moonskin’s Blood Enslaved waits in the shadows.
