Greek Heavy Rock Trio Khirki Premieres New Video Single, "Your Majesty", From Upcoming Album "Κυκεώνας"!

April 12, 2024 sees Greek heavy rock act KHIRKI release their much-awaited, sophomore studio album "Κυκεώνας" via Venerate Industries.

This time drawing inspiration from the legendary sorceress Circe from Homer's Odyssey, the band continues to captivate audiences with their unique blend of Rock'n'Roll and seductive Greek Folk. Despite the challenges of creating a sophomore album, KHIRKI has managed to uphold their very own mixture of sounds, while also expanding their musical horizons. "Κυκεώνας" weaves mythological tales with traditional instruments, proggy twists, captivating choruses, bass-heavy beats, 70s rock vibes, and powerful metal riffs, creating an intoxicating musical experience. Give ear, as today, the Athens-based trio has shared a brand new video single!

"We love the proto-metal scene of the 70s and bands like Rainbow, Black Sabbath, and Judas Priest," says the band about their new single. "'Your Majesty' is a tribute from us to the sound of that era that changed the music world forever. The lyrics constitute the anti-war speech of a knight who has the courage and audacity to speak bluntly to his king, during his own accolade. He condemns and rejects the system in the most dramatic way: having excelled within it. Of course, he pays for it with his life, hence the sound of the guillotine at the end. Enjoy!"

For the recordings of "Κυκεώνας", KHIRKI once again collaborated with renowned producer Theodore Zefkilis (Rotting Christ, Planet of Zeus & many more), capturing the essence of their sound in Athens during the Spring of 2023. The album artwork was beautifully crafted by Manster Design, enhancing the visual representation of the band's music.
