For “Crown of Thorns,“ the dynamic, ground-breaking follow-up to 2021’s “Royal Destroyer,“ The Crown made distinctly different creative choices to ensure that the LP’s 10 songs would stand as a unique collection. “For me, Cobra Speed Venom and Royal Destroyer are like siblings,“ says guitarist Marko Tervonen. And while Royal Destroyer was termed a “a ridiculously catchy album,” The Crown wanted to “make sure that we would take a step forward, get a bit more out of the comfort zone on Crown of Thorns.“
Musical dynamics are also on a new level with the 2022 addition of drummer Mikael Norén and bassist Mattias Rasmussen, and the return of lead guitarist Marcus Sunesson, rejoining long time members Tervonen and vocalist Johan Lindstrand. “With Mikael we managed to bring back a bit more of that crazy ‘Janne Saarenpää’ feel to the drumming, so that was a really cool energy boost. Mattias comes more from a punk/crust background, and he wrote ‘I Hunt with the Devil’ and ‘Mind Collapse’ for the album, which turned out great. This is definitely a step up in many ways, changing the way we worked on the CSV and RD albums.”

LYRICS:(Music:
Lyrics: )
Brave until the end
Helpless souls demising
Righteous never stand
Altered into dark – fell into the part
Drowning, the hopeless part of me
Rising, the flame that burns within
Fallen dreams are left for us to wonder
Hopeless dreams gone to hell too deep
Conscious minds fighting seeking wonder
Endless dreams gone to hell too dee
Too deep.
Roaring echoes thunder.
Falling seek the order
Twisting all the wonders
Falling down – lost the crown – endless might- watch me tear it down
Roaring echoes thunder
Falling seek the order
Twisting all the wonders
Falling down – lost the crown
Fallen dreams are left for us to wonder.
Hopeless dreams gone to hell too deep.
Conscious minds fighting seeking wonder
Endless dreams gone to hell too deep
Drowning, the hopeless part of me
Rising, the flame inside of me
Drowning, the hopeless part of me
Rising, the light inside of me
So dim
