Los Angeles-based metal band KYNG released their third record, Breathe in the Water, last year via Razor & Tie. Today, the trio has teamed up with Revolver to premiere their puppet-filled music video for the title track which is inspired by the Syrian refugee crisis. Check it out HERE.
Frontman Eddie Veliz said, “The idea for this video was to shed some light on the families in war torn countries that are trying to find a better life for their families, only to lose their children to the sea. There are too many sad stories like the one in this song that are being passed up and lost in the shuffle of social media feeds that are not given the time that they deserve and require to be processed by the human heart.”

Kyng find grandiosity in simplicity. The Los Angeles outfit may only boast three members—Eddie Veliz [vocals/guitar], Pepe Clarke [drums], and Tony Castaneda [bass/backup vocals]—but their collective roar could easily tip the Southern California Richter Scale. On their second full-length album and first for Razor & Tie, Burn The Serum, the trio harks back to the essence of heavy rock ‘n’ roll, forging thunderous percussion to lightning hot riffs driven by a divine vocal howl. At the same time, they keep their eyes wide open towards the future.
Breaking out of the City of Angels in 2011, the group’s debut Trampled Sun landed shining critical acclaim for its “California Heavy” sound merging the metallic meanderings of Soundgarden and Queens of the Stone Age with the timeless scope of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. They hit the road with everybody from The Sword and Clutch to Trivium and Megadeth—even being picked to play at Metallica’s first-ever Orion Music + More festival. However, everything was merely leading up to Burn The Serum.
