The Sixth Chamber to Release New Single “Blood of the Prophet” July 31

Usually when I post about a song or an album or whatever it is that’s not out yet I’ll play coy. Not this time. No way, I’ve heard this thing, and I wish, I wish, I wish you could hear it too. The Sixth Chamber have a new keyboardist in Alan St. Jon, who plays with Billy Squier and has done time with an impressive list of others in the studio and on stage — my understanding is that if you’re insanely talented and not a prick, being a session musician is a really good gig to get — and they bid him welcome with due theatricality on “Blood of the Prophet,” their new single. Somewhere between goth and classic prog, the song resides in a dark and dramatic expanse and the keys play a huge role in making it all come together.

I don’t know what the release plan is — I assume it’ll be on Bandcamp, and that’s linked below — but it’s out July 31, and it’s delightfully, delightfully weird. Fun in an apocalyptic Los Angeles kind of way.

The PR wire tells the tale:

THE SIXTH CHAMBER – Blood of the Prophet

Los Angeles-based mythical mysterians The Sixth Chamber are set to release the new single “Blood of the Prophet” on July 31st, which we are calling the soundtrack to the end of the world. The new track is a dark, surreal lyrical foray into timeless dreamlands and forgotten aeons.

This is the the debut recording with legendary classic rock synth master Alan St Jon in the lineup. St Jon is an original and current member of classic rock act Billy Squier. He was also keyboardist for Alice Cooper during the late ‘80s ‘Trash’ era and toured and recorded with Iggy Pop, John Entwistle, Leslie West, Twisted Sister and others. St Jon has 14 Gold and Platinum album awards to his credit and was the go-to guy for studio sessions for famed producer Desmond Child for many years.

The Sixth Chamber was founded in 2001 by songwriter and lead vocalist/guitarist Rahne Pistor and has left a 19-year triumphant legacy of gothic, doom, psychedelic rock and proto-metal tinged releases. Throughout its unyielding musical voyage The Sixth Chamber has shared management with Type O Negative, Mountain and Megadeth; played at the funeral of Jimi Hendrix/Band of Gypsys drummer Buddy Miles as invited guests; and provided music on the soundtrack of the Lions Gate distributed film Dance of the Dead.
