A lyric video for the band’s colossal first single, “Blaze Of Storming Rage“, out now on all digital streaming services athttps://magickingdom.bfan.link/blazeofstormingrage, is now premiering here:

It is the first time Dushan Petrossi (guitars/keyboards) wrote a concept album for MAGIC KINGDOM. Its songs and album structure were written according to the story, which had to follow the chapters, like in a book or a movie, in 12 different sections. He focused on very strong, catchy choruses and developed a full story with everything being related to and linked with each other. The fullest potential is reached in the song “The Great Retribution”, which sees the return of opera singers (soprano and baritone/tenor) and death/black screams together with the traditional metal voice of the band’s vocalist Michael Vescera.

Still, Blaze Of Rage is full of surprises. It’s symphonic, of course, but also offers very aggressive parts, blast beats, while thrash and heavy metal are combined with melodic and progressive elements, which all turned into something very unique that you don’t hear often in this formatted music world, where many bands sound the same.

Petrossi spent a lot of time arranging and composing the orchestra and big choirs that were used to create a full epic and symphonic feeling for the listener, almost resembling a movie soundtrack but with the rage of the purest metal. It took the band more than 4 years to finish the album, always fine-tuning and changing parts during the process. Out of 20 songs that were written, the band carefully chose the very best songs to be featured on this album. The band took their time to mix and master everything (with Mendel bij de Leij at Mendel Audio) to make sure that Blaze Of Rage sounds perfect, and to get the punch and the sophistication of classical, clever arranged, music with the power of the best aggressive and melodic metal just right!
