DEATH DEALER Release New Lyric Video ‘Every Nation’ From Upcoming Album

DEATH DEALER, led by ROSS THE BOSS has issued a new lyric video, ‘EVERY NATION,” off their forthcoming 3rd record, CONQUERED LANDS – to be released worldwide November 13, 2020, through STEEL CARTEL. 

The all-star heavy metal roster of DEATH DEALER features the aforementioned ROSS THE BOSS (ex-MANOWAR), Sean Peck: vocals (CAGE, THE THREE TREMORS, DENNER/SHERMANN), Stu Marshall: guitar (DUNGEON, NIGHT LEGION), Steve Bolognese: drums (ROSS THE BOSS BAND, INTO ETERNITY), and newly added bass player extraordinaire Mike Lepond (SYMPHONY-X, ROSS THE BOSS BAND).

It is almost like DEATH DEALER could see the future when they wrote this song 4 years ago, as “EVERY NATION” asks the question, “What would the world be like if everyone was a metal head?” And the answer is found within this inspiring song and music video. It is times like these that we need to come together and the spirit of heavy metal can do just that.

Sean: “It is kind of weird that I wrote these lyrics 4 years ago and the video was scheduled to come out now in the middle of a turbulent time of division. The song represents how I feel that the metal community that it is an evolved society compared to others. If I see someone with an Iron Maiden shirt on at the store I say hey what is up and throw them the horns. I do not care about any of the things that could divide us. I just know we are both metal loving maniacs and that is the number one thing for me. People say it is a lifestyle off the cuff but it really is.”

Ross: “The song is really rocking and has a strong message too. Music is a uniter and the video captured the concept perfectly. This whole album is filled with great songs like this one I am really proud of it. So support heavy metal and pick it up!”

Stu: “I was hoping this track would get picked as one of the songs to do a video for. I always liked how it came together when Sean and I wrote it. This track is one I am sure we will be working into the live set in the future.”

Mike: “Sean and Stu let me be as creative as I wanted on the album. They just set me loose and trusted me 100%. This style of metal is right up my alley. It’s where my playing is at its best. The level of talent in this band is off the charts. These guys push me to the edge and I love it.”

Ross: “‘Conquered Lands’ has a lot of heavy fast stuff on it but this song really has a rocking vibe and  great energy.  It is one of my personal favorites on our new record.”

Sean: “It is always a challenge to decide what songs to do videos for when you are promoting a record. I dig the hook on it and it is a fun song about being in Death Dealer. I always like bands that do songs about kicking ass. I was cracking myself up as I wrote the lyrics. It goes back to the KISS days I would say even.”

Stu: “We had a ton of footage from that great tour and the video captures the crazy energy we generate at these shows and how the crowd reacts to the band and our songs. I am really looking forward to playing these new songs of ‘Conquered Lands’ live eventually.”

DEATH DEALER will be supporting their new release with touring and festival appearances in the future.

DEATH DEALER – led by ROSS THE BOSS – have returned for another heavy metal attack with their 3rd record CONQUERED LANDS – to be released worldwide November 13, 2020, through STEEL CARTEL. DEATH DEALER has an all-star heavy metal roster featuring the aforementioned ROSS THE BOSS (ex-MANOWAR) Sean Peck: vocals (CAGE, THE THREE TREMORS, DENNER/SHERMANN), Stu Marshall: guitar (DUNGEON, NIGHT LEGION), Steve Bolognese: drums (ROSS THE BOSS BAND, INTO ETERNITY), and newly added bass player extraordinaire Mike Lepond (SYMPHONY-X, ROSS THE BOSS BAND).  

Ross:  “We have been working on this record for quite a while now and it feels like the perfect time to get this out and give the people a kick ass heavy metal record.  It almost seems like it was meant to be that the album comes out during this time period because people could use this uplifting rock and roll to put some positive energy back into their lives.”

Stu:  “We all worked really hard on this thing and I am really happy with how it sounds.  All the people that helped me with the production really came through, especially Maor Applebaum who mastered it.”

Sean:  “Making an album always is fun and you look forward to the fans’ reaction to it of course, but I really look forward to performing some of these ripping, speed screamers live on stage with the guys – and my new band mate, MIKE LEPOND.”

The DEATH DEALER sound mixes classic heavy metal with elements of thrash, power, and epic stylings, all wrapped around powerful choruses that compel the listener to sing along at the top of their lungs with fists held high in the air.

DEATH DEALER will be supporting their new release with touring and festival appearances in the coming months.

DEATH DEALER has compiled an insane variety of pre-order packages, dubbed “ULTIMATE CONQUEROR PAKS,”  that have combinations of unique digipak, colored vinyl, and merch configurations.  The label STEEL CARTEL has become well known for offering exotic arrangements of unique merchandise products (available here) for the fans at value-rich price points.  This go around, they have a stunning, 3-D Lenticular print of the cover art by DUSAN MARKOVIC included – amongst the other killer items.  “I always look forward to working with Sean Peck on album art,” says Dusan.  “He always brings a fresh idea to the table and pushes me in new directions I don’t normally go.  The ‘CONQUERED LANDS’ cover was fun because I do not do a lot of Egyptian themes and this cover came out great.”

The album was mixed by Stu Marshall, and guitars, drums, and bass were treated at MONOLITH STUDIOS in Melbourne Australia by Chris Themelco.  The album was mastered by Maor Appelbaum in Los Angeles, California.  Stu Marshall talked about the mixing and mastering partners he engaged.  “Chris made some amazing things happen to the mix and sound of the instruments and what can you say about Maor?  He is the best in the business right now.  There is no reason to look for anyone else.  He has always been a big supporter too, which is great!”

Only 3 tracks will reach the streaming platforms for the foreseeable future – this is an “old school campaign,” directed at the true metal supporters and long- term fan engagement.

DEATH DEALER have announced their long-awaited return with news of their third full-length, ‘Conquered Lands’. The album will be released in the fall of 2020 via Steel Cartel, and is comprised of twelve tracks in total.

The band is also announcing a major new addition to the band as bass legend MIKE LEPOND (SYMPHONY X, ROSS THE BOSS, SILENT ASSASSINS) is joining this already loaded line-up.

“We had a great time with Mike Davis and he will always be a brother,” says guitarist Ross the Boss about the bass switch. “Due to both of our upcoming schedules we mutually decided another guy might have to come in and handle what we had coming up. Mike Davis will be missed, but we are very excited about the addition of another bass superstar, Mike Lepond.”

“I have recorded the new album already and really dug the material,” explains the band’s newest member, Mike. “I went back and listened to their first 2 albums and there is a lot of high-powered stuff there too. I already have a great chemistry with Ross and Steve so I can’t wait to get on stage with Sean and Stu and play some of this material live.” 

Joining Ross and Mike Lepond are Sean Peck (CAGE, THE THREE TREMORS, DENNER/SHERMANN) on vocals, Stu Marshall (NIGHT LEGION, DUNGEON) on guitar, and Steve Bolognese (ROSS THE BOSS BAND, INTO ETERNITY) on drums.

“I have been super-busy touring and recording with my solo band,” explains Ross. “And everywhere I go I am asked when is DEATH DEALER coming back, when will another album be out, etc. So the work we have done for five years, with the albums and touring, is really standing the test of time. I can see the impact that we made with our first two albums with the diehard metal fans. It is really great to see and now here we go again!”

“We had ‘Conquered Lands’ 80% done for the last 3 years,” admits Sean. “And we finally had the chance to spend some time and get it finished up. We have been spending a lot of quality time online with each other lately and the fires are really burning hot to get DD back out crushing it again.”

And according to Sean, the material on ‘Conquered Lands’ will please long-time fans. “The new album has a great variety of metal flavors but overall it is fairly speedy. There are tons of killer heavy metal hooks as usual and some really great performances by all the musicians. There is a ballad too which we did not have on the last record but it is one of my favorites on the record, so it will be interesting to see how the fans react to that one.”

As always, the album will be supported with live dates (in 2021), including a festival appearance in March in England, at the HARD ROCK HELL FEST. Understandably, the band is eager to perform the new material on stage, as Sean adds that the material on ‘Conquered Lands’ is “Definitely 100% pure DEATH DEALER.”
