Following the release of the triumphant debut single “Ashen World“—chosen as one of Revolver Magazine’s best tracks of the week — KAMELOT reveal the second single from their forthcoming masterpiece, Dark Asylum, out August 28 via Napalm Records.
The grandiose “Godlike Alchemy” emerges larger than life with its soaring string arrangements accompanying frontman Tommy Karevik‘s goosebump-inducing wails. Dynamically expansive and rhythmically infectious, the band flawlessly oscillates between ornate and brutal, with Thomas Youngblood wielding some serious melodic firepower in the solo and breakdown department. Biblical atmosphere with an anthemic chorus, “Godlike Alchemy” sees KAMELOT firing from all cylinders.
Singer Tommy Karevik on “Godlike Alchemy”:
“This song encapsulates the overarching theme of the Dark Asylum. What if you don’t need to look outside of yourself to find peace and happiness… What if you already possess the power you need to heal and create the reality you want to see? What if we are all magical, powerful beings with unlimited potential? It’s a mind boggling thought…”
