Legendary musician Marko Hietala is back with a mesmerizing new single, 'Frankenstein’s Wife,' a tragic love song that blends dark humor with haunting melodies. Released today, this rock hymn is a journey into the gothic world of a mad scientist's desperate attempt to reanimate the love of his life.
With its Tim Burton-like gothic qualities, 'Frankenstein’s Wife' is both eerie and enchanting. The song showcases Marko’s signature storytelling, combining a great guitar riff and haunting keyboards that build into a chorus you can’t help but sing along to.
Marko Hietala comments: "I like to write my romance mixed with insanity and splatter. What it tells about me is anyone’s guess, but it sure is a classic combo for legends. Hope you like the song too!"
Producer and guitarist Tuomas Wäinölä adds:"Production-wise ”Frank” includes some personal favorite moments catching the vibe of the great Alice Cooper albums "Trash" and "Hey Stoopid". I love that theatrical arena rock sound with broad tempos, big guitar riffs and synths and some gang backing vocals."
The music video, premiering alongside the single, brings this darkly romantic tale to life in a visually stunning way, adding layers of depth to an already unforgettable song.
