Victor Smolski’s ALMANAC Debut “Losing My Mind” Music Video
September 29, 2017, 7 years ago
Almanac, the symphonic metallers led by ex-Rage guitarist Victor Smolski, have released a video for “Losing My Mind”, from their upcoming sophomore album, Kingslayer, out on November 24th via Nuclear Blast.
“This song is a new chapter for Almanac. It's a mixture of different vocal styles, heavy and groovy drop tuning guitar riffs and orchestra power with catchy melodies! It was a lot of fun to try new things when producing the new songs and it was worth it!" - Victor Smolski
Kingslayer was recorded with producer Andreas Herr at HeyDay Studios in Wuppertal, Germany. The cover artwork was once again created by Hungarian artist Gyula Havancsák (Accept, Destruction).
"Our second strike is complete," reveals guitar player Victor Smolski and explains, that "Kingslayer is the logical follow-up to Tsar, just more compact, heavier and faster. The experience now under our belts gained from our many live experiences, including the two tours and festivals, has been fully implemented in the studio. The band have grown closer and stronger, you can feel this unified energy within the new tracks. We took a lot of time and gave our very best. Kingslayer is a crafted metal album with a lively power sound!"
