Royal Thunder Wake Up

Royal Thunder have unleashed the audio of Wake Up. It’s taken from forthcoming album Crooked Doors, the follow-up to 2012’s CVI. So what’s Wake Up about?

“What do you want to change?” asks vocalist Mel Parsons. “Then change it! Wake up and move forward. Looking back will hold you back.”

So there.

Crooked Doors can be pre-ordered now from Relapse and iTunes. The latter includes instant downloads of Glow, Forget You and Time Machine.

The band join Rival Sons and Halestorm for a brief Western US tour in June.
