THE WOUNDED KINGS - Consolamentum Album Due In February; Artwork, Tracklisting Revealed
December 11, 2013, 10 years ago
Candlelight Records confirms February 25th as the North American release date of Consolamentum, the label debut from English doom metallers THE WOUNDED KINGS. Produced by Chris Fielding (ELECTRIC WIZARD), the album will be available for preorders via iTunes and other digital platforms beginning January 14th.
Discussing the album earlier this year, guitarist and band founder Steve Mills revealed, "this album will be our most expansive and heaviest." Indeed it is. Consolamentum's opening song, 'Gnosis', clocks in at a mammoth thirteen minutes. From there it latches on to your soul as it travels a dark and desolate sonic terrain.
"The entire album was recorded and mixed in six days during the hottest week of the year in a studio miles from anything in the Cornish countryside," shares producer Chris Fielding. "Recorded completely live, it captures the natural feel of the band. I find it to be a real step forward musically and very rewarding."Overcoming numerous lineup shifts since their formation in 2005, Mills and the The Wounded Kings have amazed audiences with their powerful stage personae.
