Description

CINEMATIC EPIC FROM FRENCH ART ROCKERS
NEW MID-PRICE EDITION OF KLONE'S KSCOPE DEBUT ALBUM FEATURING THE SINGLES 'YONDER', 'BREACH' & 'HIDDEN PASSENGER'

Klone, known for their trademark dark guitar tones and epic brooding soundscapes, released their first album for ground-breaking UK label Kscope in 2019.

The experimental progressive rock / metal group have built themselves an international fanbase because of acclaim within the music press and excellent live shows across Europe, Australia and the US with headline shows and supports for the likes of Gojira, Devin Townsend Project and Anneke Van Giersbergen.

‘Le Grand Voyage’ is a dynamic album of intense, cinematic journeys that explore nine unique landscapes, switching between dark, luminous, heavy & powerful sounds. It is inspired by duality: earthly and spiritual journeys, life and death, resilience and relenting, love & animosity – human nature and all its paradoxes. The ethereal atmospheres combine with riffs that recall 2012 album ‘The Dreamer's Hideaway’ and creates a natural evolution from 2015's ‘Here Comes the Sun’, evident in the songs "Sealed", "Silver Gate" and "Hidden Passenger".

“’Sleek, impassioned and thoroughly modern’ - PROG

THEIR DEBUT ALBUM FOR UK LABEL KSCOPE FEATURING THE SINGLE "YONDER"

Klone, known for their trademark dark guitar tones and epic brooding soundscapes, are releasing their first album for ground-breaking UK label Kscope this year, entitled 'Le Grand Voyage'. The experimental progressive rock / metal group have built themselves an international fanbase as a result of acclaim within the music press and excellent live shows across Europe, Australia and the US. They have supported the likes of Gojira, Devin Townsend Project and Anneke Van Giersbergen, and have some exciting touring booked this summer, including performances on Mainstage 2 at Hellfest Open Air (FR), Festival Le Lavoir Electrique (FR), Into the Grave Metal Fest (NL) and Euroblast Festival (DE).

'Le Grand Voyage' is a dynamic album of intense, cinematic journeys that explore nine unique landscapes, switching between dark, luminous, heavy and powerful sounds. It is inspired by duality: earthly and spiritual journeys, life and death, resilience and relenting, love and animosity – human nature and all its paradoxes. The ethereal atmospheres combine with riffs that recall 2012 album 'The Dreamer's Hideaway' and creates a natural evolution from 2015's 'Here Comes the Sun', evident in new songs "Sealed", "Silver Gate" and "Hidden Passenger".

The album drums were recorded by Morgan Berthet (Myrath), which has added to the record's massive and airy sound. The artwork by Francesco Dell'Orto partners the music with a striking and detached viewpoint between two worlds as similar as they are different, putting into perspective the world that surrounds us. This LP edition of 'Le Grand Voyage' is presented on heavyweight audiophile 180gm vinyl in a single sleeve featuring a printed inner bag.
