Imperial Triumphant

There’s a murmuring amidst the monoliths of New York City as the sounds of the megalopolis churn below. The city becomes the sound of a human engine that throbs like an atrophying heartbeat; the decaying city of the future in Fritz Lang’s Metropolis. That’s the grandiosity that New Yorkers, IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT have found equal amounts of beauty and horror within. With their latest release, Goldstar, the masked triumvirate continues their exploration of the urban and arcane. The band has found inspiration in the sound of metal pushed to its darkest extremes, gilded, art deco temples, and looming cityscapes.

Expect a gilded mask-lift when IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT returns to the stage. For all their rich, musical indulgence and masterfully honed musicianship, onstage theatricality has always been a key factor to the three New Yorkers’ live showings. New masks and an upgraded stage show will be part of their live experience with Goldstar and beyond.
