Generally, when it comes to the world of melodic death metal, very rarely does the topic of intergalactic space travel come up. Aside from acts like Rings Of Saturn, it’s pretty uncommon for bands to explore the cosmos and combine brutal musicianship with out-of-this-world lyricism.
Enter Odessa, Texas quartet Crafting The Conspiracy.
In support of their forthcoming space-obsessed EP The Cosmic Key Part 1 (due out March 19th), the hard-hitting four-piece has teamed up with The Noise to debut their brand new sci-fi-influenced single “Dimension Door.”
Detailing exactly what the face-melting track is all about, vocalist Josh Miranda said: “’Dimension Door’ is about the protagonist (Ace) aka ‘The Traveler’ trying to make his way into the ‘Galaxy Maze of Doom.’ He must go beyond the ruined earth to seek ‘The Cosmic Key’ in order to restore his home planet. But on the way, he encounters an insidious door that just won’t let up to let him in the maze to go beyond the cosmos to fulfill his task.”
Like we said, not your typical death metal topic of conversation but we certainly back it 100 percent.
