first EP “If Ever Hades Spoke”

intensity of hardcore. Following its release, “If Ever Hades Spoke” has
earned favorable reviews, marking them as a band to “definitely watch
out for.”
In 2012 Void of Kings released two singles: “Conviction” and “Pathways.” A couple months later, they independently filmed the “Pathways” music video and released it on YouTube, quickly garnering over 1000+ views.
Void of Kings’ debut full-length album, "Stand Against The Storm" was released on December 16, 2014. The album is available on iTunes or on CD from the products page of this store.
The album, was recorded with Will Beasley (Emarosa, Handguns) at Salad Days
Studio (Darkest Hour, Senses Fail, Sky Eats Airplane, Converge, Thrice).
In reviews, “Stand Against The Storm” is being called “…an impressive
debut” and “addicting.” “…Their music and message will spread through
the metal environment, catalyzing change and positivity in a scene that
sorely needs it.”
The music video for “Foreverwar,”
the first single off the album, is out now. The song has been called “a
mission statement as much as a song,” which includes “punishing rhythms
and crunchy guitar solos... this is high-minded
hardcore from a band with serious potential.”
With high-energy live performances and a strong do-it-yourself ethic, the band plans to expand to a national fan base in the coming months and book shows in support of the album.
