The lyrical concept wanders around lost loves, demons and classic horror films (namely featuring Vincent Price).Somewhere during 2016, Devil’s Hound will release the EP “A Night With Ingmar Bergman” in which will be presented songs inspired on films created by the iconic Swedish director. For now, the musician anticipates the upcoming release by sharing a song titled “Cries And Whispers”.
