The upcoming album Completely Covered in Black is a tribute to iconic rock and metal, featuring covers of classics from Kiss, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Peter Gabriel, Twisted Sister, Motorhead, and Queen. Fans can look forward to stellar guest appearances from industry heavyweights including Mark Sunshine (Unida), Karl Agell (ex-Corrosion of Conformity), Kyle Thomas (Exhorder), Rob Dukes (Exodus), and Bobby Jensen (Hairball). The album’s vinyl pressing will feature an exclusive bonus track titled "Show Them Your Power," while the CD version includes two additional cuts: Led Zeppelin’s "Kashmir" and another original, "Dead and Dying."

Guitarist Dan Lorenzo shared his thoughts on the album’s inspiration, stating, “Johnny and I both love recording cover songs. If you haven’t noticed, we REALLY love Kiss. As I write this, it’s only been a week since the death of Ace Frehley. Like many musicians my age, I started playing guitar because of Kiss. On New Year’s Eve, 1978, I had yet to pick up a guitar. My friends and I wanted to play ‘air guitar’ to Kiss Alive! I immediately said, ‘I want to be Ace.’ Three months later, I was playing guitar. Johnny suggested the Peter Gabriel track, and Mark Sunshine’s vocal performance on ‘Games’ really blew people away.”

The album will be pressed on heavyweight opaque orange vinyl, accompanied by a 12” x 12” insert containing photos, liner notes, and credits, making it a collector's item for fans of heavy music. The CD version will come in a jewel case with an 8-page booklet. Only 200 vinyl copies will be available, so don’t miss your chance to grab this rare offering.
