After a few songs took shape in the recording studio, they auditioned several lead vocalists before the awesome Lena Scissorhands, a true rock/metal queen, wrote and featured some phenomenal lead vocals on Death Dealer Union songs.
The rest is history…

Awesome and beautiful

[@CrazyTruckinS10]

Lena's clean vocals are phenomenal! She kills it every time. She's just awesome

[@seanclark2531]

She's also one of the best screamers in the business.She can also "growl" with the best of them.She's the complete package and my fav metal vocalist! 💀❤

[@wolfgangnester1867]

Let's be honest she's also drop dead gorgeous her screams her vocals everything about her is awesome

[@testrabbit]

100% agree

[@poinsettia12]

@@seanclark2531 That "complete package" is also what I'm looking for in metal music. But... I demand to be excellent in both type of singing. Unfortunately mostly if somebody is a good screamer at the same time is an average clean singer. Or has voice with not pleasant tone, too poppy. And that applies both to men and women. Lena's clean vocal is nothing special for me. Sorry:D

[@brett-1261]

Listen to Saviour they are so amazing.🙏🏼🙇🏼‍♂️

[@juanchibrossa8569]

I love Lena's clean vocals so much! Her other songs with Seas on the Moon are also phenomenal!

[@mica7191]

European version of Alyssa White-Gluz

[@richardssherman2146]

Yes. Lena's voice is so beautiful.

[@brettunger97]

She just keeps getting better! By far my favorite vocalist of all time. I love Lena so much. ❤️

[@robertlisk7254]

Mè too

[@pallen4205]

I was so expecting her to have scissor hands lol. Awesome rifts, bass, and drums. Absolutely kills it. Yall should tour with Righteous Vendetta.

[@Redrum1981]

This was a really perfect collaboration 🤘 This is best clear vocals from Lena to date 🤘 She has really used her downtime really creatively 🤘 Proud of you Lena.. There is no stopping you now 🤘 🇲🇩

[@crowmki9688]

Best clean and scream vocal combo I’ve ever heard in a singer. AMAZING!!

[@johntheharleyguy1]

Maria Brink is pretty good too. But Lena is just way hotter

[@MasterOfShades]

Дуже круто - мелодія, рифи, чудовий чистий вокал. З нетерпінням буду чекати альбом.

[@misty9812]

This is hot as hell. Lena Scissorhands is definitely a heavy metal queen. As for the band, well done guys - excellent guitar solo!

[@73Wolfchild]

Lyrics: 🤘🏻💛💙🤘🏻 “Once again the same old story Old, from beginning of times Tragic, funny and a little gory Abused, violated borderlines In my sadness see me dancing In my darkness see me sing In my sorrow see me laughing Watch my fear just disappear I see The real shapes in the light I see There’s more than black and white I know The real taste of sorrow I know How it feels to be hollow Broken and ugly inside Trying to hide in the night Can’t let anyone see The damage that was done to me Letting it burn, letting it hurt It won’t last forever Mixing fire with dirt Pain is real, pain is eternal”

[@clitoverture433]

Thank you

[@fredericzelgert9710]

Thank you soooooo much❤️

[@drewdavis4614]

Lena is amazing and the band is insane talented!!!😊❤

[@L80Marcusas]

[@TheShaymu]

Где бы не появилась Леночка, это будет прекрасно! =) Отличная работа!

[@empower5228]

Lena, you never cease to amaze 👏 👏 and I always love your collaborations with other artists and musicians! Can't wait to see what you do next! Your talent knows no bounds! 🤯❤🤘

[@JotaTondi]

Everything is great! the main riff, Lena's clean vocals, the colors of the video, everything is a 10 for me.

[@GARYBLONDER]

An interesting observation - Melissa Bonny frequently guests for bands - Lena obviously thought "why not just have the band guesting for ME?" :D But anyway, Lena's surprisingly sweet clean vocal over the top of a metal arrangement works really well - like malt balancing the hops in a good beer. And just to reassure us she's not going AOR on us, she eventually erupts into her trademark growl. Overall this is a nicely balanced enjoyable Modern Metal number worthy of your playlist. My Score: Very Good 4*

[@Leo-zi8oc]

Mindblowing and heavy Thank you Lena and DDU

[@Exathius]

I love this song. awesome voice LENA

[@robertlisk7254]

Lena is my favorite i watch this video almost every day and her yelling to the beat still gives me goosebumps

Man these lyrics are so fucking powerful and almost scary when you consider that she's probably singing of some crazy shit that actually happened to her in the past.

[@jaimepolmateer9579]

She's a metal godess.

[@johntheharleyguy1]

​@@jaimepolmateer9579Yeah she's insanely beautiful but she don't want guy parts. She's a Full blown lesbian. Not that that's a bad thing!

[@marksmith5883]

Yep, she is. Right along with Alissa White-Gluz.

[@DrGreg007]

This song proves that she can actually sing! She has an awesome voice! What an amazing combination of beauty and talent!

I know Lena for so many years now, she is so fantastic. Greetings from Rostock, Germany.

Lenas performance in this is so much more than in the latest Infected Rain stuff. Somehow unchained. I really dig it.

[@user-wp8kc9zc2x]

Бесподобно Лена!!!!

[@dennyevans4781]

Lena sounds so awesome! Love her voice and she is so very beautiful as always.

[@Metal-4-Life]

Her clean vocals won me over. First time hearing this band. Good artificial harmonics on the guitar in the main riff too. I like how the second one is different from the first.

[@mrsoulslike570]

Fuck this is good. I gotta dig a dozen holes for a deck job this morning so i really hope my customers & their neighbors like it too

[@ericanderson3280]

Lol, they should!
