Following the triumphant arrival of their debut single "Ashen World", symphonic metal ensemble Kamelot now issue the second chapter from their upcoming record, Dark Asylum, slated to arrive on 28 August under Napalm Records.
The grandiose "Godlike Alchemy" emerges larger than life with its soaring string arrangements accompanying frontman Tommy Karevik's goosebump-inducing wails. Dynamically expansive and rhythmically infectious, the outfit flawlessly oscillate between ornate and brutal, with Thomas Youngblood wielding some serious melodic firepower in the solo and breakdown passages. Steeped in biblical atmosphere and crowned with an anthemic chorus, "Godlike Alchemy" finds Kamelot firing on all cylinders.
Vocalist Tommy Karevik comments: "This song encapsulates the overarching theme of the Dark Asylum. What if you don't need to look outside of yourself to find peace and happiness... What if you already possess the power you need to heal and create the reality you want to see? What if we are all magical, powerful beings with unlimited potential? It's a mind boggling thought..."
