Orlando Metalcore band Dark Divine have surprise dropped their new single Midnight Masquerade, which will appear on the forthcoming album Undead Melody , out on 29 May 2026 via Thriller Records.
Midnight Masquerade centres on anonymity as both freedom and trap, slipping into versions of yourself built to impress, survive, or belong, until the mask becomes harder to remove. The band describe a heavier sound throughout, anchored by a melodic chorus.
Vocalist Anthony Martinez says the idea was sparked while on tour and listening to a podcast about elite secret-society parties. “The idea of desperation to be somebody… stuck in my head until it came time to hit the studio.” He adds the track is his homage to Hotel California through the lens of secret, Eyes Wide Shut-esque gatherings.
Dark Divine have built momentum through breakthrough track Halloweentown, spins on SiriusXM Octane, and support from many outlets including. The band have toured alongside Black Veil Brides, Ville Valo, Holding Absence, Crown The Empire, Blessthefall, Miss May I and Colorblind, and have appeared at festivals including Inkcarceration Festival and Apocalypse Fest.
Earlier this month, the band released the single Permanent. This is a song that “illustrates the comparison of a toxic relationship to a bad tattoo,” the band said. “The circumstances surrounding it in the beginning may have been positive, but over time, the memory becomes a permanent stain on not only the body but the mind as well.”
Dark Divine release Undead Melody on 29 May via Thriller Records. Pre-orders are available from thrillerrecords.ffm.to/undeadmelody.
