Swedish progressive wizards KINGNOMAD premiere the first
single off their 70s-infused new album 'Sagan Om Rymden', out on July 10th via
Ripple Music. Hop on board and travel through the ages of rock'n'roll and
psychedelia with "Multiverse", their new single streaming on The
Obelisk!
There's an emanating glow, a retro feel, a psychedelic hand
keeping things loose and airy, a breeze through hazy mornings throughout the
music of KINGNOMAD. New album "Sagan Om Rymden" recalls the more
playful doom-rock of Witchcraft, leading into a fair stomp of times past, with
guitar solos and organ creating a nostalgic 70s prog and proto-metal, offering
an uplifting and shimmering journey through the ages of quintessential rock.
Are you ready to teleport to the end of the universe... and beyond?
Debut single "Multiverse" is a trip in every
aspect of the term, with its swirling oriental sounds flirt with 70s synths and
fuzzy loops — the "Nomad sound". You won't escape its hypnotizing
call.

Mr. Jay (vocals, lead guitar, piano, synth) tells us more
about the new album: "When I started writing this album, I set out with a
brand new perspective. I felt inspired by old Swedish progressive rock giants
such as Kaipa, Bo Hansson and Kebnekajse — in fact, the title of the album is a
big ”hats off” to the late and great Bo Hansson. I picked up instruments I had
not written Kingnomad stuff with before, like classical guitar, piano or
putting the capo on weird places on the electric guitar. Strange and wondrous
songs would then start to appear..."

KINGNOMAD formed in 2014 in a small forest village in
northern Sweden.
Best friends and neighbors, Jay and Marcus had the desire to create a blend of
old 70s sound, nice haunting vocal arrangements, and lyrics that could carry
you off to dark and distant worlds. Bass
maestro Maximilian was quickly recruited, alongside legendary punk drummer
Andreas. Five songs were recorded and came to the attention to US independent
label Ripple Music, who released four of them onto their 'Second Coming of
Heavy' split vinyl series.
In 2017, KINGNOMAD release their debut album 'Mapping the
Inner Void', a heavy psychedelic piece filled with Lovecraftian soundscapes.
Songs kept on coming, quickly leading to its followup 'The Great Nothing' in
2018. With new drummer Mano on board, the album was described as a
"fitting soundtrack for a backflip through the doors of perception"
by Classic Rock Magazine. With their third album, KINGNOMAD keep evolving to
higher grounds, never standing still while maintaining their trademark ”Nomad
vibe”. 'Sagan Om Rymden' is coming out on July 10th via Ripple Music.
KINGNOMAD are:
Mr Jay – Vocals, lead guitar, piano and assorted
synthesizers
Mano – Drums, percussion and backing vocals
Marcus – Guitars and MicroKorg
Maximilian – Bass and backing vocals
