Praise the Almighty Riff! Triumphant, gorgeous, heavy and powerful Stoner Metal. King Zog’s 2017 debut album inducted a new titan into the underworld of doom, earning unilateral fandom and critical praise for its devotional offering to the gods of metal. Songs like Temple’s Temple, Man-sized Rotisserie and Witchsmoker sounded the way Dominic Sohor’s iconic album artwork looked; fiery and ferocious. Since the arrival of this musical leviathan, King Zog have worked on a tireless mission. The line up of Daniel Durack (vocals/guitar), Connor Pitts-West (guitar), Martin Gonzalez (bass) and Sean Ryan (drums) haven’t wasted a single day, hunkering down to write album #2 during the pandemic and performing relentlessly once the lockdowns lifted. The reward for their toil is soon to be unveiled, with 'Second Dawn' due for release on Hammerheart Records early 2024. Bigger, heavier and doomier than its predecessor, King Zog’s second album is everything fans want it to be: a rampaging bull of Iommic riffs, seismic bottom-end and thundering rhythms. Downtuned and distorted, the crushing weight of 'Second Dawn'’s music is raised up by undiluted, unadulterated vocal hooks. Like the eternal journey of Sisyphus up the mountain, 'Second Dawn' is a show of otherworldly strength, each song ascending in sheer force before thudding back to Earth, ready to start anew. From its blistering opener 'Scelestic Dusk' to its closing title track, 'Second Dawn' is a voyage through cyclonic seas... introducing fans to instant doom classics like 'Rat King' and 'Brute Beast', whose names do well to serve their ghoulish nature. Now the go-to Doom band in their Western Australian hometown of Perth, King Zog are looking out to the horizon as they ready to set sail in support of 'Second Dawn'. From headlining sold-out shows, to touring the east coast of the sunburnt country, to tearing the roof off every heavy music festival that blows into town, King Zog have become the monster their debut album promised them to be. Now they begin to ink
