With “Imperium”, the North German and greek mythology inspired deathers RISE OF KRONOS present their second full-length under this name.
As is well known, the quartet was previously active as “SURFACE” for 10 years with an identical line-up, whose musical legacy is now being taken into a new era with a new chapter.
In terms of content, “Imperium” depicts a world in which the power of Kronos is spreading after the gods have been brought down. His ambassadors in the furthest regions, his ears in every corner, his dark plague sent into every heart, he leads his Legio Titanum through a darkened world to be heard and seen.
Musically, Imperium offers 13 songs of dark, modern and straightforward death metal with influences of progressive metal, Swedish death and occasional hardcore reminiscences, wrapped in a bone-dry sound forged at Skull Tones Studio in Hamburg by Nino Helfrich (Hiraes, Dark Age, among others).
With their combination of Greek mythology and visually matching, impulsive live shows, the band is preparing to conquer Mount Olympus and has the necessary tools to do so with this album!
Album will be released on October 10, 2024 through MDD.
