King 810 Premiere New Single & Music Video "Simulacra Simulating" From Upcoming New Album "La Grande Mort Or Silence Of God"

Flint, MI-based progressive nü-metal outfit King 810 have premiered their latest single, “Simulacra Simulating”, alongside an accompanying music video filmed by midwestcreative_co. The new track will appear on King 810’s spiritual follow-up to their 2016 release “La Petite Mort Or A Conversation With God”. Titled “La Grande Mort Or Silence Of God”, the forthcoming album is set to arrive on November 27.

Vocalist David Gunn shared the following thoughts on the track and its vampiric visual treatment:

“French theorist Jean Baudrillard said we live in hyperreality now — nothing but simulations of things that never had an original. ‘Simulacra Simulating’ is about testing that theory against the one thing that refuses to be fake: What it actually feels like to love someone.

Everything around us might be a copy of a copy. This song is about how love still gets through anyway — how something real can grow out of a world built entirely out of simulations. If Baudrillard‘s right and none of this is real, then love is the glitch. It’s the one thing hyperreality can’t actually simulate.”
