Florida’s own power metal force, Seven Kingdoms, recently signed with Reigning Phoenix Music. This exciting partnership marks a new chapter for the band, kicking off with the release of their new EP, The Square, on November 8th, 2024.
They are celebrating the release of The Square with a video for "Wilted Pieces". The song is a melodic anthem similar in style to classic 80s songs by bands such as Starship, Journey, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi.
The band comments: "This is a slower melodic anthem singalong style song that has a lot of 80’s influence. We wanted to make a song that would translate on a very big PA while bringing a somewhat Hair Metal / 80s vibe with some synth sounds and influences. The music video was one of our favorites of this EP and was really fun to film. We think the song sounds and looks great! We hope that you love it as much as we do!"
Watch the video below.
The Square is out now on all streaming services. The EP is also available on both vinyl and CD formats. All physical copies are limited edition and signed by the band. Stream or purchase here.
Guitarist Camden Cruz comments: "The Square is our latest offering. In this EP we deliver a sampling of what sounds and feels we are aiming to bring to the next full release which will also come out on RPM late next year! We hope you love it as much as we do, and we will bring this material on our North American Headlining tour with Striker and Lutharo in November and December and also to Europe when we support Unleash The Archers in February and March 2025!"
Reigning Phoenix Music states: "RPM is very excited to start our new partnership with DMG (Distortion Music Group) and Maurizio Iacono, and offering a new song from Seven Kingdoms is a great way to kick it off!"
Manager Maurizio Iacono further adds: "With the new firepower that RPM will be providing to DMG artists, you can bet that American power metal sensation Seven Kingdoms will be making a lot of noise in the coming year. The Floridians are one of the fastest-rising heavy metal bands from North America, and we expect them to make waves worldwide with their virtuoso guitar skills, impressive vocal range, catchy anthems, and entertaining live shows."
