Holy Moses released the title track of 'Invisible Queen' as the 1st single and video! • GRIMM Gent

2023 will mark the final chapter in the long history of Germany’s legendary Thrash Metal act HOLY MOSES, celebrated with the band’s upcoming new studio album “Invisible Queen” (Release: April 14th, 2023) and a last run of live shows.

HOLY MOSES released their first single including a music video clip for the title track “Invisible Queen”, which says it all. Sabina Classen is the first and longest standing female thrash vocalist – The Queen of Thrash. However, she is a well-kept secret of the metal scene, never basking in the limelight of mainstream glory. She is nevertheless famous, especially to the old school metal scene and even to the bands in the current mainstream. “Invisible Queen” has a double meaning; Sabina herself says,

“I’m going to disappear into the void and I’m proud of what I’ve been able to accomplish with Holy Moses since 1981. I never could have imagined that I would travel across most of the world with my high school band and eventually leave with such a clear statement, as I have with this album. This title-track was tailored for me by my guitarist Pete. The lyrics are self-explanatory and is one of the heaviest songs on the album; it is pure, unadulterated THRASH.”

Of course, this song will be part of the live set for the “Final Reign Tour” in 2023.

All hail the INVISIBLE QUEEN during her FINAL REIGN!!

“My farewell album for the “Final Reign Tour” contains everything that made HOLY MOSES special in the past 43 years. Vocally, I was overflowing with energy and felt like I was transported back to the 80s. We have always written songs that we ourselves like and never compromised on trends or conceded to wrong expectations, especially with this final album. We aren’t out to please everyone; we are our own brand and have our own sound, which includes odd meters, technically demanding passages, and unusual chord structures as well as interesting lyrics that deal with the dark side of humanity and the human psyche”, comments Sabina Classen.

HOLY MOSES are a household name within the international metal scene. Their multi-faceted thrash metal, front-woman Sabina Classen‘s charismatic voice and their unique mix of traditional attitude and experimental evolvement have been instrumental in establishing the band as a well-known and reliable entity since the beginning of their career in the early 1980’s. With classics like „Finished With The Dogs” (1987), „The New Machine Of Liechtenstein” (1989), „World Chaos” (1990) or „Terminal Terror” (1991), HOLY MOSES wrote metal history. “Invisible Queen” adds another, impressive and final chapter to it.
