Florida power metal band Seven Kingdoms will deliver their seventh studio album early next year.
Announced today, Sono Sola will be released on January 29 via Reigning Phoenix Music. Pre-orders for the album can be made here. To celebrate the announcement, Seven Kingdoms unveiled the title track from the forthcoming album. The music video can be seen below.
Vocalist Sabrina Cruz said this about the single and visual:
"'Sono Sola' is the lead single from our upcoming album, and our first official introduction to a new sonic era for Seven Kingdoms. We’ve explored a deeper, darker landscape. Both in our tuning and in my vocal delivery, showcasing our collective growth and individual maturity to bring a fresh, unique edge to our sound. On this song in particular, I worked intimately with my lower register, weaving together delicate nuances, raw grit, and powerful belting. The lyrics are deeply close to my heart, speaking to the wisdom we gather throughout life's journey and the humbling realization that the more we learn, the more we realize we know nothing at all.
Filming the music video was an unforgettable, deeply moving experience. As I walked alone across the barren landscape near Groom Lake, I was entirely consumed by the desert's quiet majesty. With both the sun and the moon sharing the sky at the same time, I got goosebumps over and over again. A rare, magical moment of solitude in the middle of nowhere. Life often brings seasons of isolation and loneliness, but it is precisely in that aloneness that we discover our true resilience. Darkness isn’t just where demons hide; it’s where we forge our strength. Like a seed sprouting beneath the surface, invisible to the naked eye, we grow most when we accept that we don't have all the answers and that’s the whole point. Ultimately, 'Sono Sola' is equal parts nostalgia and regret: like missing something deeply, knowing that hindsight is 20/20, and realizing you can’t get back what's gone."
Guitarist Camden Cruz said this about re-signing with Reigning Phoenix Music:
"After a really successful crowdfunding campaign, we were very happy to re-sign with RPM for this new record. We are excited for this album to drop and we aim to bring the show to more places of the world on this cycle. This album represents our most intensive work, the collective growth and the band together, firing on all cylinders. It was the first time in our career we were able to spend the time and money getting everything we wanted completed at the highest level we could physically give. We were able to scale up on this record and everyone will hear it and see it. We hope you love this first taste and there’s a lot more to follow!"
Reigning Phoenix Music also said:
“SEVEN KINGDOMS have continued to push themselves with every release, and Sono Sola feels like a real step forward for the band. You can hear how much time, work and intention went into this record, from the songwriting and performances to the overall production. We’re very happy to continue our partnership with them and to help bring this next chapter of SEVEN KINGDOMS to audiences around the world.”
