Rock and metal powerhouse AVANTASIA is set to unleash their monumental 10th studio album and Napalm Records debut, Here Be Dragons, on February 28, 2025.

To celebrate the band have dropped their new single, Creepshow! which has dropped alongside a cinematic music video filmed at the Grade 1-listed Allerton Castle, a nineteenth-century gothic masterpiece in North Yorkshire.

Band mastermind Tobias Sammet shares, “Creepshow is the ultimate single – punchy, catchy, and full of energy. It brings back a playful side of my songwriting that’s been in the shadows for a while. It’s fun, unapologetic, and fresh, yet unmistakably AVANTASIA. For the video, we rented a haunted castle in northern England and dived headfirst into a spooky world of spectres and undead. This is easily the most colorful and eccentric video I’ve ever created! I can’t wait to see fans jumping and screaming along when we perform this live.“

Here Be Dragons marks a new pinnacle for AVANTASIA.
