After returning in 2022 with his widely-acclaimed full-length album “Horrifier” (#8 US Top New Artist Albums), as well as several major tours supporting his solo work and celebrated Murderdolls reunion shows, the Duke of Spook is back with “Mid Death Crisis!” Wednesday 13 dubs the album as a fun, campy, “leave-your-brain-at-the-door” rager and a true return to his hard-rocking roots! Produced by guitarist Alex Kane (Life, Sex & Death, Enuff Z Nuff, Antiproduct) and mixed by Steve Evetts (The Dillinger Escape Plan, Prong, DevilDriver) the album oozes infectious 80s sleaze metal energy.

Eerie introductory track There's No Such Thing As Monsters vibrates with electricity before industrial-tinged Decease and Desist kicks in full blast. Wednesday 13’s trademark crooning wastes no time entering the fold as he careens through the high-octane horror anthem. First single When the Devil Commands instantly proves itself as a stunner with an unforgettable hook, charging arena rock-laden drum production and chugging guitars, before tracks like Rotting Away and Blood Storm ensnare with metallic goth-punk energy that will have crowds moving wall to wall. Featuring Faster Pussycat’s TaimeDowne on guest vocals, standout heavy rocker No Apologies is a fast-romping exorcism of toxic demons, while the triumphant mini-murder ballad Decapitation riles up listeners with a catchy lead riff before making a hard left into a theatrical bridge straight out of a sinister 60s sock hop! Ragers like In Misery, Xanaxtasy and Sick and Violent explore various genres of metal, injecting the album with elements of gripping heaviness for any listener, while downtempo stunners I Hurt You and My Funeral approach a more pensive territory.
