Austin-based blackened speed metal band SADISTIC FORCE is gearing up to release their second full-length album, Midnight Assassin, this October. Following the release of their critically-acclaimed debut album and an impressive 11-date UK tour, the band returned to Texas to work on their upcoming project. Founder James Oliver fully immersed himself in the writing process, devouring countless hours of true crime and 80s slasher films for inspiration. The result is an album positively dripping with sinister undertones.
“Midnight Assassin is a record steeped in blood and terror,” Oliver says of the release. This comes as no surprise considering the source material. With songs inspired by serial killers, stalkers, and necrophiliacs, SADISTIC FORCE will transport listeners into a dark and twisted sonic arena that exposes the harsh realities of human depravity and violence.
Fans have hailed the band’s first album as “the best US release in more than twenty years.” With their sophomore album, SADISTIC FORCE will prove once again that they are a force to be reckoned with. Midnight Assassin will be released on October 13.
