Cities of Mars Announce New EP Release

“Gaze of Leviathan” was one of two new songs that Sweden’s Cities of Mars played at the recent Wizard of Fuzz festival in Kvibergs Kaserner. The other was called “Beneath a Burning Sun,” and both tracks come off the trio’s yet-untitled second EP, which will be released through Suicide Records in March 2016. Like their debut two-tracker (streamed here), the upcoming three-song release was recorded by Esben Willems of Monolord, and a new live video for the aforementioned “Gaze of Leviathan” can be found below.

The roll in the track speaks for itself, but the echoing shouts give off hints of melody that one can only imagine will continue to develop in the Gothenburg-based band’s sound and be brought out even more in the studio version of the track. We’re still a ways out from that release, but the band has started to tease the info and the material with the live clip, and everything we know to this point can be found for your perusal below. Note the art that follows is not the cover for the EP, just Cities of Mars‘ logo design:

Cities of Mars – deal for EP and live video coming up

Swedish sci-fi doom trio Cities of Mars released their first two-track EP in August 2015 and gathered lots of positive reactions for their vocally intense psychedelic doom, telling the tale of a Soviet cosmonaut landing on Mars in the early 70’s and discovering an ancient civilization and conspiracy from the dawn of time.

Now the band has joined creative forces with Swedish label Suicide Records (Age of Woe, 100 Years, Dia Psalma, Peter Dolving etc.) for an upcoming digital EP. Cities of Mars will yet again rely on the talents of Esben Willems, drummer and producer in Swedish doom titans Monolord for recording and producing duties.

The EP will be a 3-track affair, with release scheduled for early March 2016.

For those eager to get new music from Cities of Mars – now the previously unreleased song Gaze of Leviathan is available on a live video from the Wizard of Fuzz Festival in Gothenburg, Sweden.
