Belgium’s hardest rocking creatures, Gnome, are back with their majestic second
outing, King. After the success of 2018 debut Father of Time, demonstrating their
talent for stacking riffs like lego blocks, and conquering stages across Europe with
their shin-kicking live sets, the power trio from Antwerp raise the bar for their
second album, sounding bigger, catchier and heavier, with more room for vocals
(including special guest Oskar Logi from The Vintage Caravan) but never losing
sight of the quest for the golden riff. This silly looking, greasy smelling, small but
heavy three-headed being packs a bigger punch than their name suggests:
combining sing-along hooks, wall-of-sound guitars, booming drums and
thundering bass with adventurous rhythmic twists they brew their unique and
ultimately satisfying potion of sludge, prog and stonerrock.
