Charismatic chanteuse Diamante has today released her new single "Bite of the Beast", a cinematic rock anthem about the addictive yet self-destructive embrace of romantic obsession, and the accompanying official video (via Sumerian Records). When asked about the inspiration behind the song, Diamante shared:
“‘Bite of the Beast’ was inspired by the dark romance novels I’ve been reading and the song is set in a twisted fairytale world. It’s about a kind of all-consuming infatuation that changes you forever — the kind where, once it’s over, nothing else can ever compare. I wanted the song to feel visceral and dangerous, like falling under a spell you know will ruin you. It’s the kind of heartbreak that you don't want cured.”
After being featured as a Stowaway earlier this year on ShipRocked 2026, fans now have the chance to see her electric energy live on the SPIN THE WHEEL US TOUR alongside labelmates I See Stars and special guests Mothica and Until I Wake. Diamante will also be performing at the recently announced Louder Than Life 2026 festival on Saturday, September 19 (ticket information here).

ABOUT DIAMANTE
With her iconic 80s glamour and undeniably powerful vocals, Diamante has become a beacon in today's music scene, seamlessly weaving the vibrant energy and bold aesthetics of the era while forging her own distinct identity with contemporary flair. She first turned heads with her debut album 'Coming In Hot' in 2018 soon after followed by her sophomore full-length 'American Dream' including her smash-hit reimagination of Goo Goo Dolls classic "Iris" featuring Ben Burnley (Breaking Benjamin), earning widespread acclaim and further propelling her into the spotlight. Diamante has toured alongside prominent acts such as Nita Strauss, Shinedown, The Pretty Reckless, Breaking Benjamin, and Three Days Grace while performing at major national festivals including Sonic Temple, Louder Than Life, and Welcome To Rockville. The alt-pop powerhouse has begun a new era after signing with her new label home Sumerian Records, and released the irresistibly catchy "1987" and "All For The Glory". She then contributed to the American Psycho Comic Series Soundtrack with her spin on Pat Benatar's classic "Love Is A Battlefield", and collaborated with labelmates Kittie and The Pretty Wild for an emotional cover of Metallica's "The Unforgiven" for the Queen Of The Ring Soundtrack. With her empowering anthems and rebellious spirit, the sky is the limit as Diamante continues to prove she is a force to be reckoned with, both in the studio and on stage.
