King Satan is a genre-bending industrial metal band from Finland, created by enigmatic artist, multi-instrumentalist and producer King Aleister Satan. A spawn of sleazy riffs, seductive groove ’n’ roll, mesmerizing melodies, and provocative yet philosophical themes, the band’s music offers a carnivalesque blend of extreme metal crossover. An unique fusion of electronic party music and the occult side of heavy metal, served with the raw energy of rock’n’roll, the group themselves dubs as ’death metal disco’
Founded in 2015 at the City of Tampere, King Satan has steadily carved out a distinct identity within the alternative, industrial and extreme metal scenes, gaining loyal following through relentless touring, provocative theatrics and a mercurial sound resonating somewhere between avantgarde and shock rock. Originally a solo studio project, the act crew into a full line-up band known for their energetic live shows, trickster-like narrative and infectious charisma.
The band’s unapologetic approach, not shy of controversy, combines dark humor, absurdism and social provocation together with esoteric and philosophical themes inspired by the dark side of the human psychology and the world’s mythologies. Renowned for their explosive stage presence, crowned by the dynamic vocal interplay between the band’s mastermind and keyboardist-vocalist Hekate ”Kate” Boss, creating a ’Beauty and the Beast’ style of a dialogue between raw darkness and eloquent power.
King Satan has toured extensively across their native Finland and Europe with own their headliner shows and also supporting such prominent names like Deathstars, Turmion Kätilöt and Gothminister. Touring has taken the band to perform to prestigious metal festivals as well like Tuska Festival and Masters Of Rock but also to acclaimed industrial-alternative festivals like Dark Malta and Hellsinki Industrial Festival – demonstrating the band’s versatile genre-defying expression.
The band has revealed that there will be a new album out during 2026, but before that the group announced a collaboration single with renowned Finnish blues rock guitar virtuoso Erja Lyytinen, with a song titled ”Black Magick Rock ’N’ Roll” to be out in March 2026. With multiple full-length albums, charting releases and award-winning music videos the band continues to expand their unholy metal carnival beyond the boundaries of kitsch entertainment and mystic arts in the name of the wicked one!
