UK PREMIERE – Franklin Zoo – Song For The Cynic
FRANKLIN ZOO – the Danish prog rockers – are back with their brand new single and official lyric video “Song For The Cynic”.
Even though their prior record “Red Skies” which was released on Mighty Music in 2016 received much appraisal as an album and the live tour was received well, the group needed to find a new expression and a new theme. Thus, they parted ways with existential misery, depression, loss and death and set their sights on life, resilience, cohesion, social responsibility, and authenticity with less of a nihilistic backdrop, while still maintaining the dark contrasts that let life’s light shine through.
This reflects the music, which is now at times more dynamic and lighter and at times still aggressive, dark and merciless. Overall, the music is more varied within and between each song than ever before in order to reflect the nuances of a heartfelt life.
“Song Of The Cynic” is the second single from what is to become a full-length concept album. Check it out below:
Line up:
Rasmus Revsbech, Vocal
Anders Rune Hansen, Bass
Søren Dabros, Guitar
Daniel Hecht, Guitar
Lars Bahr, Drums
