On March 21st, avant-death metal trio Imperial Triumphant will release their sixth full-length, Goldstar, via Century Media Records. Their most instant and evocative work to-date, Goldstar reins in their musical wanderlust with a newfound focus that the band has only hinted at with past works. Their latest single - "Lexington Delirium" (featuring the ominous spoken vocals of Tomas Haake) - is just one example of this heightened songwriting acumen, clocking in under 5 minutes, while retaining their trademark musical virtuosity in this homage to classic NYC architecture. Watch the video–filmed at the iconic Chrysler Building (a rare opportunity not given to many artists, especially the top floors!) and directed by Brendan McGowan–here: https://youtu.be/v9cDvwwbj6A?si=GDOXci0-QkW-8hwM
Imperial Triumphant comments: "Ziggurats rise, skyscrapers weep, & the future is not birthed from the organic but from a cosmic, mechanical womb. It speaks of posterity lost in the congestion of New Culture, a place where Manhattan's towering ambition conceals impending delirium. The Throne of Bolts becomes both a seat of power and a looming specter, begging for salvation from the soulless surge of progress. We climbed the deco spire of the magnificent Chrysler building in order to bring you a magnanimous visual experience."
Steve Blanco (Bass, Keyboards) reflects: "Gazing at the building's stainless steel Egyptian sun rays, I felt a profound connection to something greater, a deep resonance with the universe itself. Sharing that moment with my bandmates Zachary and Kenny and everyone involved made it all the more fabulous."
