Very few are aware of the magnitude and significance of this place where good/evil, dark/light, bliss/torment, loss/gain and hope/despair all exist as one- pulling at us every moment of our lives. It’s not something we can choose to navigate, but rather an awareness of this ‘presence’ that surrounds us with every breath, as if we are being watched at every moment. It’s the place where black and white energies attach themselves to our souls, and shape our emotion, choices, perspective and ultimately our very existence. There is a miraculous and small realm within this vortex and it’s the only place where balance between these dynamic and polarizing forces exists — where the soul finds its refuge. Welcome to…..THE NOTHING.” ... Wednesday, June 19, 2019 ... CROWN THE EMPIRE will release their ew album, "Sudden Sky," on July 19th.

Each member wore a full hazmat suit and we managed to keep casualties to a minimum. Our safety inspector did fall asleep on the job and Shred Ned's solo melted three faces, but otherwise, all particles of rock and/or roll were well contained.

The complete EP drops on April 26th. Says Norman of the upcoming release: “'As Strange As Angels' is a story with many chapters - each chapter needed to be given its own soundtrack. Whatever felt right, I ran with…. I didn’t care about genre and labels. I just needed a vessel to call my own as a mechanism to communicate what I was thinking and feeling. I’m so thankful for all the amazing people who have helped me bring this release to life. Those who picked me up along the way never gave up and never stopped believing in me. Plenty of people let go at a time when I needed them the most. But I channeled that and let it fuel me. I took a step back and learned how to live life again. 'As Strange As Angels' is a testament to that - a gift in many ways. I owe much of myself to all those that kept my blood flowing and my heart going - and I owe all of myself to my son.” … Monday, March 18, 2019 ...

This is the band’s first new release since 2011’s “Build and Burn.” For more information, check out https://sulacoband.blogspot.com... Wednesday, June 20, 2018 …Bassist Aaron Sluss is no longer in SEVEN KINGDOMS. Said the band in a press release: “Today we would like to announce a member change in Seven Kingdoms. We have parted ways with Aaron. It's obviously not easy choice to make, but this decision is what we found necessary to continue moving forward. We wish him the very best with his other projects and want to thank him for the last 8 years of dedication and hard work! As one door closes, another opens. We would like to welcome John Tyler McDaniel, who will be stepping in as a full time replacement on Bass. Tyler has been a dear friend of the band for a very long time and he will keep that low-end fat and tight for the foreseeable future. You may know him from his other band Monotheist (Prosthetic Records). We are very excited to get this new lineup on the road and will be announcing new North American dates soon!” Adds John Tyler McDaniel: "When I first learned about the band in 2011 I thought what a pro band! I wish I could only be in something as legitimate as Seven Kingdoms one day. Over the next years, I was lucky enough to become very close friends with everybody in the band. They helped me through a rough time and took me out under their wings in 2013 on the Stratovarius and Amaranthe European Tour. It really showed what kind of amazing people they are. I immediately wanted to return that feeling. Over the years I've been involved from everything from the backyard BBQs all the way to being an assistant engineer on “Decennium.” When the time came for change, I don't think there was any hesitation on mine or the bands part to ask me to step in. I have some big shoes to fill and I plan to give it all I got, on and off stage. I think it's a new chapter for everyone and I know I'm super excited to see what we can do!"

Says frontman Ben Ward: “Sometimes you just have to make a statement and I believe that this album is that statement. We just wanted a title that represents the feelings we tried to get across with the material on the album and it seemed to fit perfectly. It’s vicious, it’s dangerous, it’s wild and it’s unashamedly heavy metal and hard rocking! A lot of bands seem to be ashamed to say that these days, there are too may hipsters and posers that are afraid of the heavy metal tag yet like to revel in the imagery. Fuck that, people should be proud to be heavy metal!” Get your copy of "The Wolf Bites Back" today. Review coming soon on RoughEdge.com...

The new album is entitled ”Tunguska” and if you’re wondering what the hell that is, it’s a reference to a mysterious explosion that took place in Siberia in 1908. Says the band’s guitarist/producer Anders Wikstrom, the new CD ”highlights the unique musicianship we have developed together over the years in the creative songwriting process, but also illustrates how we want our albums to sound and feel in the 21st century. We managed to dig deeper into the lyrical content, and musically, the dynamics in the songs and production are more distinct as we let heavy, raunchy stuff co-exist with the softer side of the band.” For more information, check out https://www.facebook.com/treatofficial/...
