The Cage & The Crown : Chapter Ii - Vinyle Noir & Blanc

Description

HEADKEYZ returns in full force with The Cage & The Crown: Chapter II. An alternative rock/metal album with a 90s-00s vibe. Powerful, visceral, cinematic. A committed, enraged cry that closes the narrative of the diptych begun in 2022. HEADKEYZ paints a portrait of Man in abyssal, indelible black: this super-predator trapped in his own crown... and his own cage. Entirely conceived by Edge (Adrien Girard) and mixed "in the box" by Thibault Akrich, The Cage & The Crown: Chapter II stands as the inverted and paradoxically complementary resonance of the first installment. The mastering, by Emerson Mancini in Los Angeles (Linkin Park, Paramore...), completes this second chapter with new power and sonic precision. "Intoxicated" addresses addiction and obsession, "Viking" rejects the codes of toxic and stereotypical masculinity, and "The Crown" demonstrates that even the crown is a cage. "Rotten Party" is an anthem to a party gone wild. It's also a nod to the skate punk and nu metal sounds of the 90s-2000s. A good old-fashioned destructive party to forget the world around us and just have a blast. The Cage & The Crown: Chapter II is a dark, powerful, and deeply human album. Black and white vinyl edition.
