ROYAL THUNDER reveal Crooked Doors cover art
Album trailer available, new album out in April
Royal Thunder offer a first listen to music from the their sophomore album, Crooked Doors, to be released on April 6th in UK/Europe/World, April 3rd in Benelux/GSA/Finland and April 7th in the US, with a brief trailer featuring music from the eleven-song release.
Check out the trailer here on YouTube or here on Dailymotion.
The band began work on the album in early 2014, returning to record at the Aria Recording Studio where they created the band’s critically lauded debut, CVI. Pitchfork described singer Mlny Parsonz as “a blues-rock banshee of a woman, equal parts riot grrl and gospel diva” while Spin said she “commands a bluesy mix of Led Zep and Sleater-Kinney.” Rolling Stone’s David Fricke said Weaver’s playing has “the meaty, base elements of early-Seventies British blues.”
Pre-orders for the eagerly awaited album are available now on CD/2xLP via Relapse Records (bit.ly/royalthunder) and digitally via iTunes (geni.us/RTiTunes). Orion Landau, who also designed the artwork for Red Fang’s Whales and Leeches and Yob’s Clearing the Path to Ascend, created the album’s evocative artwork.
