King Leviathan announce debut album 'Paean Heretica', due out 5th August on Infernum Records. King Leviathan, hailing from Brighton UK have gathered quite the following since releasing their critically acclaimed 2015 E.P 'The Shrine', spreading their "Black Mass" to Bloodstock Open Air and several iterations of Mammothfest as well as touring the UK with the likes of Wretched Soul, Abhorrent Decimation and Meta-Stasis.
The south coast act have become known for their combination of extreme thrash and groove metal vibes with hints of black metal, providing whirlwinds of guitar shreds. On top of that Adam Sedgwick's vocal capability has vastly improved since 'The Shrine', he makes switching from a power singing voice to furiously aggressive shouts seem effortless.
Now, the blackened thrash four-piece have just announced details for their eagerly awaited debut album, 'Paean Heretica', which has been two years in the making. It is King Leviathan's darkest and heaviest work to date, encompassing themes of loss, abandonment, blind faith and what comes after death.
The album is a nine track, 45 minute collection of 'psalms' which were recorded and mixed by Paul 'Win' Winstanley at Brighton Electric Studios, mastered by Alan Douches (Mastodon, Revocation, Motorhead, Baroness) and with art by Alex Norman (Guns 'n' Roses, Opeth, Katatonia, Sylosis).
