Royal Thunder: Reveal Crooked Doors Details + Pre-Orders Now Available

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Atlanta, GA's ROYAL THUNDER are set to release their sophomore album Crooked Doors, due out on April 7th via Relapse Records. This week, the band has offered a first listen to music from the the record, with a brief trailer featuring music from the eleven-song release.

The band began work on the album in early 2014, returning to record at the Aria Recording Studio where they created the band's critically lauded debut, CVI. Pitchfork described singer Mlny Parsonz as "a blues-rock banshee of a woman, equal parts riot grrl and gospel diva" while Spin said she "commands a bluesy mix of Led Zep and Sleater-Kinney." Rolling Stone's David Fricke said Weaver's playing has "the meaty, base elements of early-Seventies British blues."

Pre-orders for the eagerly awaited album are available now on CD/2xLP via Top40-Charts.com, and digitally via iTunes and Bandcamp. Orion Landau, who also designed the artwork for Red Fang's Whales and Leeches and Yob's Clearing the Path to Ascend, created the album's evocative artwork.
