Search - Kingcrow :: Phlegethon

Formed back in 1996, Kingcrow is one of the leading Italian progressive metal bands, taking its name from Edgar Allan Poe's poem 'Raven' and inspired by a wide range of musical influences, spanning from classic acts such as Pink Floyd and Rush to modern day prog giants such as Porcupine Tree, Riverside, Opeth, Orphaned Land and Dream Theater. 'Phlegethon' is the confirmed title for the band's new effort, following the critically acclaimed concept-album 'Timetropia', which secured them enthusiastic reviews in the international press and several high profile gigs at big rock/metal events including Gods Of Metal (alongside Iron Maiden and Judas Priest among others) and Evolution festival (alongside Sebastian Bach, Virgin Steele and Fates Warning among others). 'Phlegethon' is a brand-new concept representing the very best of the band's musical approach and features a first class performance by Diego Marchesi, singer with outstanding vocal skills and an emotional approach which consolidated Kingcrow as one of the most exciting bands that Italy has to offer. The album is expected to be released in may 2010 on Scarlet Records.
