Post-metalcore quartet Crown The Empire have announced the release of their new album ‘DOGMA’
The band say ‘DOGMA’ is a diverse album fueled by angst, existential identity, isolation, and determination. Over the last three years, the band took time to reflect on personal and collective priorities. This introspection is reflected lyrically in 'DOGMA’. ‘The lyrics are less wordy and lofty. It’s more honest and direct,’; shares vocalist Andy Leo who offers a candid perspective on paranormal encounters, manic dreams, and the depths of quarantine.
‘We brought back the classic elements of Crown without taking anything away from what we’ve done more recently,” shares longtime bassist and screamer Hayden Tree on the band’s new era. “The high-energy, fast-paced, hard-hitting riffs, with the band’s more melodic side, mashed together into an updated sound.'
‘DOGMA' will include previously released singles ‘Immortalize,’ 'In Another Life' featuring Spiritbox’s Courtney LaPlante, and ‘Dancing With The Dead,’ which combined have garnered 11.5M+ streams to date.
The album will also include an exciting collaboration with Palaye Royale’s Remington Leith.
Alongside the announcement, the band offers another glimpse at their forthcoming record with the title track, “DOGMA. Check out the music video, co-directed by guitarist Brandon Hoover below.
