THE CROWNED Rise from the Shadows with Explosive New Single “Fallen One”


“We praise the skies for fallen angels…”

Hard rock powerhouse THE CROWNED return with a thunderous new single, “Fallen One,” a gripping and emotionally charged track that showcases the band’s signature blend of soaring melodies, crushing riffs, and unapologetic intensity.

ABOUT THE SONG

“Fallen One” is an onslaught of groove riff’s and thrash going back and forth competing with each other. Until finally, you hit the chorus that breathes big open church choir power vocals to fill a whole cathedral. Just when you think the song is going to stay calm, it builds into a heavy slam beat that you cannot help but head bang to. After things take a turn for the worst, you’re met with fast double bass pounding in your chest until you can’t handle anymore. After that, a solo rips your soul in half with speed and intensity. The solo climaxes at the end with a beautiful uplifting harmony that you will sing for days after you’ve only heard the song once. We go back into the chorus one last time to give a louder and powerful shout for the “Fallen One” and a brutal scream ends the song with fast intense double bass and an abrupt ending leaving you questioning what the hell just happened.

Every band has their own “it” factor.

THE CROWNED stands out amongst the rest with their looks, stage presence, and set up. It’s not every day you see a band with a frontman as the drummer and singer. The band formed in 2013 out of great state of Texas. Creating gory music videos, a slew of surprises for live performances, and metal music that is remembered well after the stage is vacant,

THE CROWNED is not an act you want to miss.

Now signed to Curtain Call Records and M7 Talent Agency, THE CROWNED is prepping for a tour in the summer in Europe.

More details to come.
