Kingcrow Releasing New Album "Eidos"

Rome, Italy's progressive metal band Kingcrow has wrapped up the final touches on sixth album, "Eidos," and is preparing to release it through Sensory Records on June 23rd. The label also comments:

"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 the 'In Crescendo' album released through Sensory in February 2014, Kingcrow returns this year with 'Eidos,' a new conceptual album about choices, consequences, dealing with regret and disillusion. After the 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."
