KingCrown, the French power metal band, is back with their highly anticipated new album “Nova Atlantis“..
Known for their dynamic sound and compelling lyrics, KingCrown quickly made their mark on the European metal scene since their formation in 2018 by the Amore brothers.
Their debut album, “A Perfect World” (2019), offered a blend of fast-paced anthems and emotional ballads, all unified by polished production and a strong sense of melody. The band’s sophomore release, “Wake Up Call” (2022), explored themes of personal and social awakening, challenging listeners to confront the world around them.
Now KingCrown pushes their creative boundaries even further with their latest album. Described as a more mature work, this new release delves deeper into both sound and theme. Fans who enjoyed “Wake Up Call” will certainly appreciate this new album produced by the renowned Simone Mularoni (DGM).
Behind each track lies a theme connected to the album’s concept, many of which draw inspiration from enduring myths and legends.
The band has successfully combined a mythological and historical atmosphere with their powerful music, resulting in a compelling and layered listening experience.
KingCrown’s sound is shaped by a wide range of influences, from power metal giants like Iron Maiden, Gamma Ray, Symphony X, Masterplan, and Helloween. The result is a powerful mix of melodic metal, catchy choruses, and a diverse range of themes that resonate deeply with listeners.
Over the years, KingCrown has refined their sound, opting for greater power and directionality while maintaining their signature melodic approach.
Their evolution reflects their desire to create music that not only captivates but also leaves a lasting impact.
As they continue to explore new sonic territories, KingCrown remains dedicated to delivering high-energy performances and creating music that speaks to the heart of the metal community.
