ZEAL & ARDOR isn’t just a band; it’s a living and breathing entity. Like any sentient being, it consumes, evolves, and transforms from one season to the next. It has only sharpened its claws, lengthened its teeth, and steeled its nerves over the years, growing more undeniable and unpredictable in the process.
The band dropped its fourth album, the self-produced GREIF, on August 23. Get it here.
Today, the band has shared the cinematic video for “Kilonova,” which plays out like a short film against the backdrop of the song’s tension.
Watch it here.
“A ‘Kilonova’ is when two supernovas collide,” band leader Manguel Gagneux states. “It’s the type of grandeur I’m after.”
Now that you’ve had a moment to ponder and chew on that sentiment…
The band will return to North American soil with a headline tour that kicks off November 23 in Philadelphia and runs through December 18 in Dallas. Gaerea and Zetra will support. Get tickets here. All dates are posted below.
