Witch Ripper Drop Deliciously Proggy New Single “The Clock Queen”
If you’ve been looking for a new band that feels like Mastodon but has their own sense of scale and groove imbued in everything they do, look no further than Witch Ripper and their latest single “The Clock Queen”. Featured on their forthcoming album Through The Hourglass, this new track isn’t just great, but it helps tell the overarching story found in the band’s third studio effort.
Vocalist and guitarist Curtis Parker explains how this one song has an all-encompassing importance to the story they’re trying to tell in their music.
“‘The Clock Queen’ is the best representation of Witch Ripper in its purest form: Heavy. Melodic. Progressive. In our story, it represents the big reveal of who our antagonist meets in this world they’ve found themselves in. Throughout the album, we peppered in what we call “the clock queen’s theme,” a melody that sneaks its way into almost every song at some point. This song is the culmination of that tension and it’s when we finally meet the driving force of the album: The Clock Queen herself.”
Through The Hourglass will be released on April 10 via Magnetic Eye Records, but you can preorder your copy today.
Through The Hourglass tracklist
- Odyssey in Retrograde
- The Portal
