Demons & Wizards on julkaissut ensimmäisen singlen ja videon ”Diabolic” helmikuussa ilmestyvältä kolmannelta studiolevyltään ”III”. Albumi on kaupoissa 21.2.2020 Century Median kautta.
Vokalisti Hansi Kürsch kommentoi:
‘Diabolic’ for sure is a musical statement and its message is very clear and precise: We take no prisoners! We had a hard time figuring out a proper opener to “III”, but when ‘Diabolic’ took shape, we realized it was the perfect introduction to the album!
Kitaristi Jon Schaffer lisää:
This song is a sequel to ‘Heaven Denies’ and it is dark, heavy, vicious, melodic, and totally atmospheric, everything I love about songwriting and making records in eight minutes! ‘Diabolic’ has the right attitude to make a strong statement as the first song that people will hear after 15 years!
