NORTHERN CROWN - New Album Out In July, Track Available For Streaming

Florida (USA) based doom lords Northern Crown are releasing their third full-length album, In A Pallid Shadow, on 3rd July as a self-release. The track named "Observing" is now available as a foretaste and you can give it a listen in the player below.

In the cracks between the genres of doom, prog, and rock n’ roll, Northern Crown find a unique fit, often compared to bands such as Candlemass, Black Sabbath and My Dying Bride. In A Pallid Shadow is everything that a real adventure should be made of - an epic struggle between good and evil, a terrifying personal dilemma, a brief moment of unexpected beauty, and a few good stories. Confident in their new rhythmic stride with groove-heavy drummer Dan Konopka of OK GO, the band melds guitarist Zach Randall’s signature writing, vocalist Frank Serafine’s distinct classic vocal grit and dynamics, and Leona Hayward’s penchant for assertive and beefy bass lines.

As with the band’s self-titled previous album, the music is placed in the best artistic light possible thanks to the evocative artwork of Travis Smith. The final mastering of the album was handled by the notorious and balanced hands of Dan Swanö (Unisound Studio/SE.) Soloist Evan Hensley (Nightfall/Dark Hound/Karmic Link) rains fire down on the songs with a broader contribution than earlier albums, a de facto member of the band. Link
