𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 announces the release of their new album "𝑾𝑨𝑲𝑬 𝑼𝑷 𝑪𝑨𝑳𝑳"!
Powerful French melodic powermetal band 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 presents their new masterpiece "𝑾𝑨𝑲𝑬 𝑼𝑷 𝑪𝑨𝑳𝑳".
After an album titled "𝑹𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆" under their old name Öblivïon and their first album of 2019 titled "𝑨 𝑷𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅" under their new name; 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍, it was time for the band to release their second album under this name!
"𝑾𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝑼𝒑 𝑪𝒂𝒍𝒍" is an album that touches on the theme of the awakening of human consciousness.
It is humanity's journey from an old and disturbing world to a new one, centered on balance, clarity of mind and unity of souls.
It tells of the challenges we face to change our paradigm of existence and transform our lives for the better.
"𝑾𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝑼𝒑 𝑪𝒂𝒍𝒍" has all the elements a melodic powermetal fan could ask for.
It's the record that perfectly bridges the gap between the European power scene and the American powermetal titans of the 90s.
An album that is a true statement for the lethargy of humanity and whose title could not be more appropriate now:
A "𝑾𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝑼𝒑 𝑪𝒂𝒍𝒍" from 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 to the world!!!
