IRON KINGDOM Launch "Queen Of The Crystal Throne" Video By Larry Petro, News Monkey Tuesday, October 25, 2022 @ 8:54 AM
Canada’s IRON KINGDOM are purveyors of traditional heavy metal bringing forth epic tales set to equally epic music. A throwback to the 80s when metal was loud and shocking, they blast listeners in the face with thunderous drums, walls of riffs, and well-woven fantasy tales told with soaring vocals. They have a fifth album on the way The Blood Of Creation, which takes their entire evolution through hard rock, progressive metal, and finally classic Metal and combines it into one impressive package. The second single is “Queen Of The Crystal Throne”, which the band explains in their own words:
“This powerful mid-tempo banger was written about a dark seductress: cold, aloof, and dangerous, you show interest at your own peril. We wanted a straight rocker tune, and that’s exactly what we did here with "Queen Of The Crystal Throne", with hints of early QUEENSRYCHE or ACCEPT, the riffs have some balls, but they also keep a cool pace, it’s really just a super fun tune.”
IRON KINGDOM’s M.O. is to take people away into some unique fantastic worlds they may or may not have experienced, but this album is also quite dark and it’s meant to be that way. Coming out of a pandemic brings some darker emotions some people may have never experienced previously, which they think this album may parallel. Ultimately they want people to get the chance to escape this world for a time and find solace in the music.
They usually get a lot of their ideas from fantasy but they also like topics around history or religion and other topics to just make people think. They like things to have a deeper meaning than meets the eye. The Blood Of Creation is not a concept album, but it does have a trilogy about the creation myth from the ancient Mesopotamians. Telling the tale of Tiamat and Marduk and the creation of the heavens, the earth, and mankind. This story is known as being one of the oldest, if not the oldest known story from mankind.
“Queen Of The Crystal Throne” is one of many immersive and powerful tracks on the album and is recommended for fans of JUDAS PRIEST, QUEENSRYCHE, and RIOT.
