Leagues beyond his small hometown outside of Lowell, Massachusetts, Stellar emerges with his dark-pop masterpiece Prince of Darkness. Noting on surreal Los Angeles landscapes, intense relationships, and his own dark side, Stellar pens a bold deep dive through his own abyss. Amassing upwards of 18 million streams on leading single “No Angels”, Prince of Darkness has struck a chord in listeners that clearly resonates and speaks straight to the soul.
The project is filled to the brim with pulsating riffs, sultry beats, and dark accents of piano, leaning into the melodrama of the album. While on the surface, second track “California Caffeine” might sound like a sun-drenched and irresistibly addictive pop song, the lyrics speak to the dark and devilish nature of the city of angels. “Red Flags” is yet another highlight of the project as Stellar weaves together catchy vocal overlays that tell a story of a toxic relationship. “Temptress” is a full-throttled banger from the moment you press play sparked by an adrenaline-inducing electric riff. All in all, Prince of Darkness is a riveting ride through the dark corners of Stellar’s psyche that sheds light on the dark side within us all.
Prince of Darkness is an exciting next chapter for Stellar as he dives deeper into the genre of dark-pop. With 18 million streams and counting on “No Angels”, Prince of Darkness continues to climb on pop cultures horizon.
