The Thirteenth Sun Premieres "Planes Of Creation"
Need some smooth travel across the universe and into another plane of existence this morning? We've got a dimensional-pushing premiere for you to kick the week off with new track "Planes Of Creation" from The Thirteen Sun!
"Planes Of Creation" is taken off "Stardust," the debut album from these Transylvanian progressive metal Argonauts, and is due to be released on May 12th. Pre-orders are online here.
The story of the band begins in 2011 when Radu (vocals and lead guitars) started writing the first songs together with Marius Muntean (keyboards). They both came at that particular time from different areas of musical styles but had a lot of common roots as well and the idea to create music combining elements from different genres to strike a balance.
This later became the essence of the whole project, making music through shared experiences that is set to make one escape the confinements of routine and be able to gaze outside the limits. Because the night skies often brings one to wonder of the limitless possibilities surrounding us, it occurred as a natural outlet to set a starting point of the story that would unfold from that sea of possibilities above.
In 2012 Septimiu Harsan (drums) and Marius Licu (guitars) joined the band and the structure of the songs was then crystallized for what was to become the first material, a self-released EP named "Genesis" in December of 2012. In 2016 The band started recordings a first proper studio album named "Stardust" in Consonance Studio (Timisoara) having Edmond Karban (Negura Bunget/Dordeduh) as producer and also as guest vocals on the album, with the mastering being done by Martin Zeller.
Having an atmospheric touch in its essence and also an experimental side to the entire concept, the band has found an ideal place to expose the light of the "Stardust" album, that place being Aural Music, where experimental and ambient are very familiar words and boundaries are being redefined and explored constantly.
