Heavy metal has officially entered a new era. With the global release of HAUNTED, the genre-defying new album by MR SCARY, the boundaries of rock music have been shattered. Now available across all major platforms in over 150 countries, this high-voltage record delivers a genre-redefining experience backed by one of the largest collaborative lineups in modern metal history.
Spanning horror, heartbreak, groove, and guitar god craftsmanship, HAUNTED is more than an album—it’s a monumental statement. Featuring 36 elite musicians from the top tiers of rock and metal, the album weaves sinister ambiance with explosive performances and soulful compositions. From powerhouse rhythm sections to searing leads and theatrical vocal work, MR SCARY has curated an ensemble effort that stands as both a tribute and evolution of heavy metal’s deepest roots.
The record’s opening track “I’m Haunted” sets the tone with hypnotic grooves and an ominous pull into MR SCARY’s cinematic universe. “Frosted Side,” performed by Brian Young and Martin Motnik, offers a cinematic and emotional journey. “Miracles,” featuring legendary drummer Anton Fig, delivers a heartfelt tribute to lost loved ones and the spiritual will to survive. “Good Woman,” written by Steve Morse along with Mr Scary, Ray Luzier, Brian Young, Michael T. Ross, and Martin Motnik, stands out as a powerful, groove-driven anthem with an all-star performance.
“Crazy” erupts with wild riffs and rebellious energy brought to life by Gregg Bissonette and Martin Motnik. “Jacob’s Ladder” delivers a dark and theatrical experience with Barry Sparks, Derrick Shipp, Robbie Lockner, and MR SCARY’s most brutal vocal performance to date.
The album’s star-studded lineup reads like a who’s who of rock royalty, including Steve Morse (Deep Purple), Ray Luzier (Korn), Anton Fig (KISS, Joe Satriani, Bob Dylan), Gregg Bissonette (Ringo Starr, David Lee Roth), Martin Motnik (Accept), Barry Sparks (Yngwie Malmsteen, Scorpions, Dokken, Ted Nugent), and members of Texas Hippie Coalition including Nevada Romo, Rado Romo, Cord Pool, and Timmy Braun, alongside more than two dozen elite performers from the heavy music world.
Each track on HAUNTED is meticulously crafted, layered with emotion, grit, and virtuosity. Born from personal transformation, the album finds its thematic core in love, pain, and survival. MR SCARY’s own journey—marked by personal loss and new beginnings—inspired the lyrics, sonic direction, and spiritual intensity behind every note.
HAUNTED is now available for streaming and download on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, and all major digital platforms. Fans and metalheads worldwide are invited to experience the haunting revival of rock, explore exclusive behind-the-scenes content, and join the movement as MR SCARY leads the charge in redefining what modern metal means.
