Black Laden Crown is the first DANZIG album of all new material in 7 years,
since 2010's critically acclaimed Deth Red Sabaoth. The cover painting is by
long-time collaborator and British comic book artist Simon Bisley.
"There are moments, like menacing second single 'Last Ride,' which are up
there with some of the best music Danzig has done; moody, bluesy beats with dark
and powerful vocals coming together in a perfect union. Elsewhere, there are
quick flashes of heaviness like the end of 'But a Nightmare,' which follows a
similar chord progression as Slayer’s 'Raining Blood,' speeding up throughout
the song until the parallel can't be ignored. Production-wise, Black Laden Crown
sometimes muddled leaving a bit to be desired, but that's no surprise given
Danzig's renowned taste for old amps, analog recordings and anything else from
way back in the day. His influences are firmly set in the '50s and '60s, whether
it's the fuzzed out leanings of Link Wray's 'The Shadow Knows' or something from
a long forgotten cult-classic like the song 'Devil’s Angels' from the 1967 film
of the same name that he took on for 2015's covers album Skeletons. And with
song titles like 'Skulls & Daisies' and 'Blackness Falls' from this newest
record, the wheel isn't being reinvented; it's rolling exactly the way Danzig
fans have come to expect." - Michael Christopher, Loudwire
