Episode #260 - Curse at 10: Screams in the Night

We continue our deep dive into all things Curse of the Damned in celebration of the album's 10-year anniversary by examining album opener "Screams in the Night." Night Demon band members past and present explain how the song originated as an afterthought in the Curse writing sessions, but how it has gone on to become a fan favorite, a "hit," and a fixture in the band's live set. Among other details, you will hear about the song's connection to the Blood Sacrifice comic, the writing process, early demos, why Jarvis recorded the guitar solo on the studio version, how Armand plays it differently live, its impact in the setlist, lighting cues, notable mistakes, and why the song will forever remain a staple of the Night Demon live attack.Ultimate Edition preorder - cursedamn.comBecome a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.
