Kingcrow to release 'EIDOS' June 23rd

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Rome, Italy’s progressive group, KINGCROW, have wrapped up the final touches on the band’s valiant sixth album, Eidos, and is preparing to release it through Sensory Records this June.
Describing the band today is quite a difficult task, but one could state that the influence of such artists as Porcupine Tree, Riverside, Opeth, Anathema, Pink Floyd, Meshuggah, Radiohead, King Crimson and Massive Attack are all present in the music of KINGCROW. With each release, the band has taken a step further away from their original roots as a classic hard rock/metal band, and is today one of the most personal and exciting bands that Italy has to offer the scene.

Following the success of their In Crescendo album released through Sensory in February 2014, KINGCROW returns this year witih Eidos, a new conceptual album about choices, consequences, dealing with regret  and disillusion. After their album, Phlegethon, dealt with childhood, and In Crescendo about the end of youth, Eidos can be considered the third part of a trilogy about the path of life. Musically it sees the band exploring new territories and pushing the extremes of its complex soundscape with a darker atmosphere and a more progressive attitude. With over an hour of new material, Eidos is the next logical progression in the evolution of KINGCROW, and will open the next doorway for what lies in wait for them next.

Also responsible for the release of KINGCROW’s In Crescendo album, Sensory Records — the metal subdivision of progressive music collective, The Laser’s Edge — will unveil Eidos worldwide on June 23rd. Additional album details and audio samples will be released in the very near future.

	The first single has been released through an official video for the track, “The Moth,” via an exclusive premiere with massive print and online entity Prog Magazine. Showcasing the Rome-based KINGCROW sextet’s expansive take on forward-thinking metal in a completely different approach than ever before, the video for “The Moth” was created in a unique animated style by Argentinean artist Gastón Viñas, widely known for his similarly-styled works for some Radiohead’s songs. Issues band main songwriter Diego Cafolla about the song, “When we started to think about the first single, ‘The Moth’ seemed the obvious choice to us since it’s short, busy and quite catchy at the same time and shows also some new ingredients to our sound…”. KINGCROW’s video for “The Moth” is now viewable through an exclusive premiere at UK-based Prog Magazine at THIS LOCATION.
