PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
During last spring’s European Tour with Prong, Italian alt-metal band KLOGR had goPRO cameras on stage, in addition to having the band’s official photographer, Nico Cagarelli, film their shows backstage and on-the-road. The resulting footage will end up on a live/documentary DVD, to be released next year! Watch a teaser here for an upcoming full concert “Live in Hamburg” to be released next week in support of the upcoming DVD:
That’s not all – KLOGR have more news in store for their diehard fans, which will be announced later this year.
For now, you can enjoy an amazing preview of what’s to come via KLOGR’s new video for ‘Failing Crowns’, one of the most appreciated tracks off of the band’s latest release, Black Snow. Watch the video, directed by KLOGR frontman Gabriele “Rusty” Rustichelli, bassist Joba, and photographer Nico Cagarelli, here:
Although it’s not the most straight-to-the-point track, it is one of the more representative songs of the band, with its progressive groove and smacking riffs. The ‘Failing Crowns’ single is available digitally via iTunes as part of a special package, including the original album version, a live version recorded in Hamburg, and a live version of the track ‘Draw Closer’, also recorded in Hamburg.
