"We have always played around with unnamed forces of darkness in the past. With this release, we felt the need for an evil overlord to take the reigns and bring in the apocalypse. A savage and unstoppable force such as this had to be a definitive and commanding figure, which is why we came up with The Demon King." said Mephisto (Keyboards) explaining the album title.
Demonstealer further commented "This album has been 4 years in the making and we're more than excited to release it. We're also extremely happy to renew our deal with Candlelight Records who will put out the album worldwide and also our new relationship with Universal Music who will release the album in India."
The band's last album 'The Return To Darkness' was released in 2010 on Candlelight Records worldwide and Demonstealer Records in India.
Indian Metal band Demonic Resurrection will be performing at the Wacken Open Air 2014 in northern Germany, which will take place from 31 July to 2 August. The festival, in its 25th year, is the biggest open air heavy metal festival in the world and is already sold out.
Sahil ‘Demonstealer' Makhija, vocalist and rhythm guitarist with Demonic Resurrection, spoke about how the band got in touch with the festival. "We as a band have been approaching festivals for a long time now, which is the logical step for any band of our level. Two years ago, Wacken started the Metal Battle in India, where the winning band played the battle of the bands at Wacken. The promoter of that show started the Bangalore Open Air in India, which we performed at in 2013. There, we met some of the people from WOA. I guess that probably helped us is some way, and also helped them put a face to the band that they have been receiving mails from; and then, obviously, seeing us live as well," explained Makhija.
The 14 year-old band plans on heading to Europe early and will begin with Scotland where, they will perform at the Les-Fest in Glasgow on 17 June. Following that, they will be doing a run of shows across UK and Europe, and will end their Euro-tour with Wacken.
