Italian progressive metal outfit KINGCROW has crossed continents and is currently on North American soil touring in support of their grand fifth full-length, In Crescendo, out now on Sensory Records.
Following a kick-off show in Atlanta last night upon their arrival to the U.S., KINGCROW is in the process of hooking up with Pain Of Salvation, supporting the prog giants on an eight-city trek, not including a one-off show headlining the afterparty for the first night of this year’s ROSFest gathering in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania this Friday, May 3rd.
Having evolved from a mostly progressive metal direction, KINGCROW has increasingly expanded the scope of their sound to encompass elements of rock over recent years, nowadays culminating strong atmospheric components similar to Riverside, Porcupine Tree and Pink Floyd but also bearing a heavier, metallic semblance to Opeth and Dream Theater. In Crescendo has helped the band gain legions of new fans since its February release via progressive metal linchpin Sensory Records a division of The Laser’s Edge.
KINGCROW has completed their second official video from In Crescendo, for the album’s fifth opus, “The Drowning Line,” now playing alongside the previously-released video for “Morning Rain,” a visual trailer for the North American tour and more, all viewable RIGHT HERE.
Additionally, In Crescendo’s opening track, “Right Before” is streaming at PureGrainAudio, and the second track, “This Ain’t Another Love Song,” at Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles.
Review copies of In Crescendo, live coverage of the tour as well as in-person interviews with KINGCROW’s Diego Cafolla are available now!
