Copenhagen, Denmark-based progressive metal group Royal Hunt have released an official lyric video for the track \u2018The Wishing Well\u2019, which can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Royal Hunt issued 14th full-length studio album Cast In Stone<\/em> on February 7th, 2018 in Japan through King Records. NorthPoint Productions scheduled release in the rest of the world to take place on February 21st.<\/p>\n

Keyboardist and main songwriter Andr\u00e9 Anderson commented: \u201cThis album took a while to complete… mind you, between the very first idea and until the final mix, we did two tours and released two live albums… so this one\u2019s been in the making for quite some time. In a way, it\u2019s been very practical: you could work on it for a while, than go on doing something else and then come back later to re-evaluate what\u2019s been done before. As a result, all songs on the album are solid and well crafted, showing every aspect of Royal Hunt today: originality, catchy hooks, strong melodies, great musicianship and larger-than-life production. On that \u2014 the production \u2014 we definitely did quite a job: all the vital recorded parts were done in analogue as well as the final mixing\/mastering so there\u2019re no \u2018loudness wars\u2019 in sight; no brickwall limited, over-compressed, lifeless wall of sound\u2026 the album breaths just like a real rock album should. I could also go on for hours praising everybody\u2019s contribution \u2014 musicians and singers alike \u2014 but as my opinion will inevitably be very biased, I would prefer to leave the final judgement to you… after all this album\u2019s been made for you to enjoy (although we\u2019re enjoying it immensely ourselves at the moment).\u201d<\/p>\n
