Jennifer Scream revisit the myth of Lucifer with new single "Morning Star"

Jennifer Scream just released their new single, "Morning Star". The track is the third single taken from the band's forthcoming album, Unfaithful, scheduled for release in January 2027.

With "Morning Star", the glam rock band expand their sound through a prominent use of keyboards alongside their heavy guitars, creating a more epic, lyrical and theatrical atmosphere.

The song draws on the myth of the fall of Lucifer, the "Morning Star", and the clash between the celestial armies led by the Archangel Michael and the rebel angels. Its lyrics contrast Lucifer's original grandeur, once associated with light and truth, with his eventual condemnation to darkness.

"Morning Star" also incorporates verses in the Italian vernacular taken from Canto XXXI of Dante Alighieri's Inferno, specifically the passage depicting the earth recoiling at the impact of a celestial fall.

The visual and conceptual inspiration behind the track also draws from Gustave Doré's engravings for Paradise Lost and Alexandre Cabanel's painting The Fallen Angel. From Cabanel's work comes one of the song's central images: a figure defined by pride and defiance, with that strength broken only by a single tear.

“We wanted to portray the figure of Lucifer not merely as an icon of evil, but in his more human and tragic dimension - that of a defeated pride that refuses to bow,” explain Jennifer Scream. “Integrating keyboards and incorporating Dante’s verses allowed us to lend a cinematic scope to our glam rock sound, creating a powerful contrast between the intensity of the riffs and the fragility of a tear in the dark.”

"Morning Star" is available on all major digital streaming and download platforms.
