It is a monumental year for Japanese metalcore band Crystal Lake as they proudly release their long‑awaited seventh studio album “The Weight of Sound”, available now worldwide via Century Media Records.
Packed with 11 tracks, the album captures the quintet at their most dynamic, innovative, and emotionally charged. It is also the first studio album since John took over vocals for the band back in 2023. With 5 tracks having guest performances by various artists, including David Simonich, Jesse Leach, Myke Terry, Taylor Barber and Karl Schubach, the band pushes their typical soundscape further than ever before, balancing razor‑sharp metalcore, crushing deathcore elements, atmospheric electronics, and immersive melodic passages.
