ROYAL THUNDER, who play SXSW tomorrow, reveal a new song, "Glow," from their forthcoming album, Crooked Doors (April 7, Relapse Records) via Entertainment Weekly.
Late last week the Atlanta quartet premiered the first in a series of webisodes documenting the making of the eleven-song album, which the Austin Chronicle awarded four stars to in their pre-SXSW coverage. Watch it HERE.
The band has shared two new songs from their sophomore album: "Time Machine" and "Forget You". Paste Magazine said "Forget You" takes "the atmospheric elements of their music even further. It's a song that has a heady blend of the sludgy blues stomp that garnered them widespread attention and even heavier, darker elements than before." Metal Injection called "Time Machine" "seven minutes of rock godliness."
Pre-orders for Crooked Doors are available now with the music available on CD/2xLP/Digital via Relapse HERE. Digital pre-orders are available HERE and include an instant download of "Forget You" and "Time Machine."
If you're going to Austin for SXSW, ROYAL THUNDER plays March 17 at Dirty Dog.
