Coming off their exciting performance at 70 Tons of Metal this past January, SUPER MONSTER PARTY (SMP) has a new single and video entitled “Night Into Dreams”. The track is an 80’s synth wave meets metal and is inspired by the popular Sega video game of the same name. It features guest artists, Lacey Johnson, a popular VGM artist, and the members of Lame Genie on drums, bass, and guitar.
“I wrote this song to capture the essence of the game, Nights Into Dreams — a realm where the magic of flight, matches the pulse of the joystick, and every riff powers you through a level of chaos and triumph.” adds vocalist Rei Sega.
The single is also their first taste of new music since releasing their latest album “Rage Quit“ this past November.

SUPER MONSTER PARTY is a band for all video game nerds, jump’n’run enthusiasts, metalheads, 90s kids, weirdos, and everyone in between – a metal band that’s all about video games, singing from the heroes or villains introspective point of view. Rocking together since 2020, SUPER MONSTER PARTY have already gathered a lot of XP, having a bunch of achievements under their belt, with 4 albums: Rage Quit (2024), Game Genie (2023), Side Quest (2020), Permadeath (2020) and an EP Up Up Down Die (2022). The band is the concept of Singer/Songwriter Rei Sega and features notable members Emilio Martinez (Yngwie Malmsteen) on bass, Fern Lemus (Lions at the Gate) on the drums, Andy Alvarez (Irras One) on rhythm guitar, and Oleh Andrievsky as lead guitarist.
Their intense, melodic, catchy, and heavy sound shows influences of The Misfits, Rhapsody, Slipknot, NOFX, and Van Halen. The variety of different influences and genres, worshiped by the band, means that they can find the right metal sound for all game themes – each video game universe is authentically set to music, while the skills of the masterful musical chameleon that is SUPER MONSTER PARTY cannot be pinned down to one genre. No two songs sound the same, but one thing is for sure – they all rock hard.

“Super Monster Party Gotta Go Fast in Their Tribute to Sonic the Hedgehog, “Blue Hurricane”” – Metal Sucks
“Super Monster Party’s Single “This Is Doom!” is a Love Letter to the Gore-Filled First-Person Shooter” – Metal Sucks
““Okay,” grins livewire Super Monster Party frontman Rei Sega. “Now we’re gonna do something different…” It’s one of the understatements of the weekend as the video game-obsessed crew oversee an incredibly unhinged flash flood of colour and chaos. Based out of Miami, they’re the closest thing to local favourites that 70K has on offer and a packed-in audience throw everything into seeing them steal the whole damn show. Punters chucking Mario Kart shells at each other across the room. Dozens of special outfits, from a black metal Pikachu to Ronald McDonald and Grimace. Some giant pink monster, possibly an obscure Pokémon, ‘laying its eggs’ in the middle of it all. There are circle-pits, conga lines, punters crowdsurfing in inflatables from the pool and more chaos than you can wave a controller at. And SMP have the songs to match, from bonkers bops like Dance Dance Revolution (Til The Death) to Blue Hurricance (a speed metal banger about Sonic The Hedgehog) and smashing closer This Is Doom!. The games have just begun.” – Kerrang (2025 – 70 Tons of Metal Live Review)
“Rage Quit is just so much fun. Very much one which suits the metal community as so many of us are also gaming nerds, and the tunes aren’t throwaway crap either…. played well, tongue firmly in cheek, and rounded off well with the interludes. Very much one to look forward to.” – Moshville Times
“Rage Quit balances heavy riffs, melodic hooks, and varied styles to pay tribute to video game culture. It feels cohesive yet unpredictable, each track a carefully crafted homage that never loses the adrenaline-charged atmosphere of the album. From the crushing bass lines to the soaring guitar solos, each hits with maximum impact. Rage Quit is an invitation to relive gaming’s glory days through the lens of modern metal. With its flawless integration of game references and electrifying soundscapes, Super Monster Party has crafted a release that’s not only enjoyable but also groundbreaking in its dedication to celebrating the shared love of music and video games.” – Amplify The Noise
“SUPER MONSTER PARTY’S “RAGE QUIT” Album Is A Masterpiece Of Epic Proportions” – Horror Patch
“Video game nerds unite! Metal band Super Monster Party have just released their new album “Rage Quit” and if you love your metal heavy and fast (aside from one ballad) with intermittent narration between tracks for the full-on concept experience, well your day has arrived. Each track is centered on old school classics like Mortal Kombat, Doom, Sonic The Hedgehog, Zelda, Mario Bros & Castlevania among others. The perfect soundtrack while conquering the pixelated universe.” – WJOE – Findlay’s Home for Rock & Roll
