JAKARTA - After sleeping for almost five years, Bless The Knights, a band that has been known to consistently play djent music through its existence on metal scales since 2015, has risen again and released its newest single entitled Metamorphosis.
The latest single launched is believed to be the latest form of the band fronted by guitarist Fritz Faraday (mrfritzfaraday), where Bless The Knights drastically changed their musical concept but still made guitar solos their signature hooks.
The decision to return to the band format was indeed taken because Fritz felt it was time to return to the stage as it subsided and the COVID-19 pandemic that hit the world for the past three years.
I feel that the real stage of a band is the physical stage, the real stage is the real stage, itself. Especially now that the pandemic is over, I want Bless The Knights to live again, walk again and get together again with metalhead friends throughout Indonesia," Fritz said excitedly in his statement.
Regarding the selection of the title Metamorphosis itself, it is actually done solely to ensure the sustainability of the band and reach more listeners who want simpler music packaging but still have fierce nuances.
I want Bless The Knights to be more 'longer' and easier to accept in the ears of people who want to hear simpler things. With the current formation, Bless The Knights will appear lighter but not 'change his sex', still in the djent realm, the music is calmer than before but it will be even more terrifying on my guitar solo, "explained Fritz.
"In the past, with high-complexity parts, it was difficult to find a replacement for personnel who were unable to attend or were no longer committed to the band. Hopefully my latest strategy will go according to plan," he concluded furiously.
Apart from surprisingly changing the way of music, Bless The Knights is also now collaborating with two vocalists at once, namely Cas Coldfire (clean vocals) and Gilang Rammadhan (screen vocals) and equipped with Naufal who will sit behind the drums.
The re-building and rebranding project Bless The Knights itself has actually started in mid-2022. Slowly but surely, Fritz Faraday is looking for the pieces of the puzzle he needs to mix the new package of Bless The Knights which he will bring back to navigate the Indonesian and international metal markets.
