  • Description

    THE NEW ALBUM FROM THE FRENCH ALT-METAL/ART-ROCK COLLECTIVE.

    Emotive & conceptual, Klone have once again broken new sonic ground & built further on their signature expansive sound.

    Since 2019's opus 'Le Grand Voyage', French art-rockers Klone have risen to new heights across the globe, touring alongside the likes of Leprous & Pain of Salvation & blowing away festival crowds at Hellfest, Motocultor, Prog Power USA, Midsummer Prog & Cruise to the Edge. Back with new album 'Meanwhile', the band return with sprawling textures, huge guitars & beautiful melodies to satisfy progressive metal fans & rock listeners alike.

    Recorded in February 2022 with producer Chris Edrich (TesseracT, Leprous, The Ocean Collective), 'Meanwhile' chronicles the best & worst aspects of humanity. Vocalist Yann Ligner's high-concept & oftentimes meta lyrics paint a picture of events taking place at the same time but in different places, while he muses about choices that are made against our will that can change the course of our common history - resulting in some poignant reflections about today's world.

    First single, 'Within Reach', showcases Klone's signature blend of beautiful soundscapes, monstrous riffs & off-kilter time signatures, blended with relatable lyrics. The band say: "'Within Reach' is about those missed opportunities, those moments that elude us, close to the tipping point & so often within reach. The song introduces the album & sets the tone with a powerful & direct opening. With a sharp sound, Chris Edrich's massive production enhances a composition full of relief & straight to the point both heavy & refined, 'Within Reach' condenses the ingredients that make the colour of this new album."

    The striking artwork for 'Meanwhile' was created by Umut Recber, who experimented with photo manipulation techniques to create a striking image of stormy skies which perfectly represents the music within. Klone's most concise, direct & sonically accomplished album yet, 'Meanwhile' is an essential listen.
