Industrial metal magnate Tim Skold marks the release of his newest beast, the superb single “Rat King.” The lead off track from his brand new album, Seven Heads, “Rat King” sets the tone for the album with bass-heavy, distorted synths and layered guitar riffs that underline Skold’s caustic vocal delivery. Lyrically, the song is a poignant commentary on society’s deadly sins of emotional dissociation, lack of motivation, and denial.
Seven Heads may be Skold’s most mature and focused album to date showcasing his increasingly complex songwriting skills. From the frenzied chaos of “My Addiction” to the emotionally resonant “Hold The Night,” Seven Heads shows why Skold has become one of the most in-demand musicians and producers, playing numerous shows as a guitarist for EBM legends Front Line Assembly and working on Marilyn Manson’s collaboration with Kanye West. The whole album will be available on July 28, but you can listen to the single and reserve your copy now!
