Dark Divine releases new music video and song “Paper Crown” featuring Fame On Fire’s Bryan Kuznitz, and announce anticipated debut album ‘Deadly Fun’

Hard-rock band Dark Divine releases their newest music video and single “Paper Crown” (feat. Bryan Kuznitz of Fame On Fire) via Thriller Records. 

While talking about the track, lead vocalist Anthony Martinez states:

“I can’t tell you how long we have been holding onto this song, waiting for the right time to release it. This was one of the most fun collaborative efforts we have ever done and I hope that everyone enjoys the video as much as we enjoyed making it. We know people have been anticipating this song’s release for a while so we wanted to make sure the people got what they were expecting plus some things that they weren’t. Bryan Kuznitz is a very dear friend of Dark Divine and we were so glad he was willing to hop on the song as well as the video.”

Alongside single release comes the announcement of the band’s highly anticipated, debut full-length record, Deadly Fun. Deadly Fun is produced by Zach Jones (Chelsea Grin, We Came As Romans, Fit For A King) is due out September 8 via Thriller Records.

While talking about the forthcoming album Martinez states:

Each song has its own message but the whole album is based on different individuals’ fear of literal, spiritual, or emotional death. It explores what it’s like going through daily life and never knowing what’s around the corner, down a hallway, or in the basement. Like walking through a mystery funhouse or a creepy carnival. It’s fun but also terrifying at times. Without that fear, everything would be taken for granted.
