Avantgarde metal trio Imperial Triumphant have dropped a new single via Century Media Records: a cover of the Radiohead classic, “Paranoid Android”! The first of a series of covers, the video for “Paranoid Android” (created by Above the Void//@abovethevoidmtl) can be seen below.
Zachary Ezrin (vocals, guitar) comments: “We are huge fans of Radiohead and their ethos. We feel that Radiohead have a diverse and unique approach to song craft and lyricism that we have always gravitated towards, and the song ‘Paranoid Android’ lays out a perfect canvas for us to play and create with.
“The artwork, created by Alek Kalabalov, exquisitely blends the aesthetics of both bands seamlessly.
“It was a pleasure reinterpreting this great rock classic, and we hope you find it immensely pleasurable.”

European fans will be able to catch Imperial Triumphant on the road starting this week, where the band will be performing at some of the biggest festivals this summer, in addition to special shows with Behemoth and Author & Punisher.
Imperial Triumphant released their latest full-length, Spirit of Ecstasy, last year, with media hailing the group as “one of the most intriguing acts in metal” (Needle Drop). Disturbing, mind-bending, darkly powerful, Spirit of Ecstasy is uneasy listening for turbulent times; stream the record now here: https://imperialtriumphant.lnk.to/SpiritOfEcstasyID, or watch the video for single “Merkurius Gilded” (featuring Kenny G and Max Gorelick) at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywcshfrpO3A
