News: TAU CROSS Shares "Killing The King" Music Video Via BrooklynVegan/Invisible Oranges; Band Announces European Headlining Dates


Multinational punk/heavy metal collective TAU CROSS has shared the official music video for the second single off the impending Pillar Of Fire full-length album.

Watch the Jakub Moth-directed video for "Killing The King" via BrooklynVegan HERE and Invisible Oranges HERE.
 
Issues bassist/vocalist Rob "The Baron" Miller, "It is a time for dismantling the apparatus of authority and control. We live within the landscape of T.S. Elliot's Waste Land, within the age of the Hollow Men and the new Crisis of cultural disintegration in the West. It is a time for 'Killing The King.'"
 
Adds the partnered blogs, "Like Amebix, the song sorta occupies the grey area between punk and metal, with melodic riffage, heavy chugs, snarling shouts, gravelly screams, and just a little bit of psychedelia. The grainy, black-and-white video suits the song well."
 
And in case you missed it, check out the band's previously-released "Deep State" video HERE.

Pillar of Fire will be released worldwide July 21st on CD, 2xLP, and digital formats via Relapse Records. Physical preorders and exclusive bundles are currently available via Relapse.com at THIS LOCATION and digital preorders are available via Bandcamp HERE.
 
Pillar Of Fire was recorded across three different countries and co-produced by "The Baron" in the same manner as their eponymous debut. The drums were tracked in Montreal, guitars in Minneapolis, bass in Seattle and Minneapolis, and vocals on the Isle Of Skye in Scotland.
 
Pillar Of Fire further expands the group's unique musical approach ranging from dark folk witchery to industrial punk metal brutalism; a moody melting pot of Killing Joke's metallic post-punk and Motörhead's anthemic, hard rock with flourishes of traditional instrumentation and an infusion of 16th century English mysticism. Pillar Of Fire is a musical unearthing of TAU CROSS' philosophical preoccupations: mythological motifs, ultra-terrestrial hypotheses, surreal, social political landscapes, and the endless search for meaning in a controlled universe.

Formed in 2013 across two continents and three countries, TAU CROSS is a multinational punk/heavy metal collective featuring Amebix bassist/frontman Rob "The Baron" Miller, Voivod drummer Michel "Away" Langevin, and members of cult crust outfits Misery and War//Plague. TAU CROSS is the natural evolution of Miller's work in Amebix. The band's self-titled debut was recorded in 2014 and released via Relapse Records in May 2015 to widespread critical reception including an inclusion on Rolling Stone's Top Metal Albums Of The Year List. TAU CROSS may have set a high standard for its first record, but if the band has proven anything so far, it's that it's incredibly skilled at meeting - and exceeding - expectations. TAU CROSS made their live debut performance in 2016 in North America, followed by a special mainstage performance at the legendary Roadburn Festival in the Netherlands. Now in 2017, TAU CROSS returns with their highly-anticipated sophomore full-length, Pillar Of Fire.
