Speaking about the album, the band said:
“Mankind has always turned towards the heavens and wondered, looked for answers, reminisced about past times and planned for the future based on what the night sky reveals to them. Our debut album ‘Reclaim The Darkness’ touches on these themes and was created with these themes in mind both musically and lyrically. With the aim to take the listener on a journey to contemplate our existence and purpose in the universe as humans have done throughout time.”
Reclaim The Darkness” is the debut album of Australia’s King, formed in 2013 by David Hill and Tony Forde who had worked together previously on grindcore and death metal projects but shared the same drive to create something with more depth and space to express their musical ideas and concepts.
Drawing from shared musical influences like Immortal, Moonsorrow, In Flames, Satyricon, Dissection and Soilwork, the underlying focus during the writing process was on strong song structures to allow the arrangements to effortlessly transition between raw black metal and epic, soaring layered melodies. Life, death, our existence within and as part of the universe are lyrical themes throughout the album. Gaining equal inspiration from turning towards the heavens, wondering at the stars and the infinity of time and space, to the thought of a new life being born and contemplating our short time on earth as humans.
