Damian Hamada's Creatures Unleash "Blood on Blood" During TOUR 666
Damian Hamada’s Creatures kicked off their ambitious national tour with a bang—literally. The band surprised audiences at the opening show of TOUR 666 on November 1st with an unreleased track that’s already generating serious buzz in the Japanese metal underground.
For those unfamiliar with the project: Damian Hamada’s Creatures is the brainchild of Damian Hamada, the legendary founding member of Seikima II who originally penned classics like “Wax Museum” before returning to the hellish realm. After a 35-year absence, the Dark Lord of Hell re-emerged in 2020 under Sony Music’s Ariola Japan banner with a new incarnation featuring vocalist Isha-dō Sakura (an X-Factor finalist from Okinawa) alongside members from progressive rock outfit Kantetsu Ebisu. The current lineup includes guitarists RENO Faust and Axe KAZUMA, bassist Lilith Ichinose, and drummer KAZAMI Crowley.
The surprise track “Blood on Blood” arrives as a streaming single on November 13th, with an official lyric video dropping at 21:00 that same evening. The band has already revealed cover artwork alongside the announcement, building momentum heading into the release date.
TOUR 666 runs through November 27th, with shows already sold out in Nishi-Kawaguchi (November 1st), Aichi (November 22nd), and Tokyo’s Kinema Club finale (November 27th). The Tokyo closing show carries special significance: attendees can film using smartphones only, and all content posted to SNS qualifies for an exclusive Damian Hamada’s Creatures wallpaper giveaway.
Remaining tour dates include stops in Fukuoka (November 6th), Okayama (November 15th), and Osaka (November 23rd). Tickets are moving fast—most shows report limited availability.
This follows the band’s back-to-back single releases “Shichidai no Taizai” (Seven Deadly Sins) in July and the earlier “Vampire’s Daughter” in June, continuing their prolific output as they march toward complete “earthly demonization.”
