Pimmit Hills, Virginia-based doomsters KING GIANT have just unveiled their new performance-based video. The second video from their 2009-released 'Southern Darkness' full-length, this brand new visual portrayal of the track 'Solace' was filmed at Washington D.C.'s infamous 9:30 Club, and portrays the band boasting their soulful Southern rock in a thunderous live setting. The video was produced by Kevin Barker and Double Kick Productions, who also produced the first video from Southern Darkness, for the track '13 To 1,' released last September.
View both the brand new "Solace" video as well as the previously-released '13 To 1' video at this location.
After self-releasing 'Southern Darkness' in mid 2009, KING GIANT are now proud to announce the 12" vinyl version of the release! Also being self-released by the band, via their own Graveyard Hill Records imprint, the massive album is available in two color schemes [oxblood, and oxblood with gold/silver splatter], both pressed on quality 180-gram wax, bound in a deluxe gatefold setup, and including a free digital download card of the album as well. More details and ordering info is available via http://www.kinggiant.com now .
KING GIANT are in pre-production of their next album now. Few details are available as of now, but the album title is confirmed as 'Dismal Hollow', and the band will begin recording in March for a release date later this Summer to be announced soon. KING GIANT played at the State Theatre in Falls Church, Virginia last week where they previewed a bit of the new material for the first time, and were actually joined on stage by doom legend Victor Griffin (Pentagram, Place of Skulls) to take part in the band's cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'The Needle And The Spoon'.
More widespread touring and live appearances are imminent for the remainder of 2011; more details will be announced as they are confirmed throughout the year.
