After earning huge critical acclaim for their album Sanguivore, Creeper today unleash Sanguivore: Special Edition, which sees the sextet take a fresh, fang-toothed bite at the vampiric rock opera by extending its universe with an additional four tracks.

Creeper launch the album with new focus track 'Love And Pain' - a haunting desert noir ballad in which lead vocalist William Von Ghould croons a rumination of “despair despair, everywhere,” like a Nephilim hybrid of Chris Isaak and Glenn Danzig. It extends the album’s original vision with a fresh chapter of gloomily elegant malevolence.

Elsewhere, Sanguivore: Special Edition hosts an array of special surprises. 'Shadows of the Night' plays up to their ‘80s power ballad leanings and theatrical flamboyance, as keyboardist/vocalist Hannah Hermione takes charge for their take on Pat Benatar’s 1982 GRAMMY winner. She also commands the mic for the creepily cute murder ballad 'Phantom Fantasia'. The set is completed by Count Dalgula’s Queen of the Night Extended Mix of the album’s lead single 'Cry To Heaven'. The mix, from producer Tom Dalgety, pumps the original’s drama to maximum with grittier riffs, an extended atmospheric breakdown and surely the most grandiose guitar solo that Ian Miles has ever committed to tape.

The Sanguivore: Special Edition is completed by a new black-and-white version of the album’s striking cover art created by Gut Slaughter. The original version by Welder Wings landed Creeper a nomination for Best Album Art at this year’s Heavy Music Awards, as well as Best Album.

This week saw Creeper commence a 19-date North American tour as special guests to Black Veil Brides, which includes major shows in New York and Los Angeles.
