LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Release New Album 'The Offering' - Out Now!

Album Release Show Tomorrow (April 2nd)

wsg. Grant Truesdell of Unleash The Archers!

Wisconsin-based heavy metal band LORDS OF THE TRIDENT have released their new studio album, 'The Offering', today (April 1) on all major digital/streaming platforms! Featuring the singles "Charlatan", "Acolyte", and "Carry The Weight", the new full-length is the band's sixth LP, and this time around, Lords of the Trident put an emphasis on connecting with their loyal fanbase like never before. In light of the recent lull in live shows and touring, the band created a Patreon where they would be able to share exclusive and finely crafted content with their most eager followers. By the time 'The Offering' was announced for a worldwide release, Patreon members had already been granted access to hear the new album in all of its glory!

Talking about giving 'The Offering' to Patreon members months ahead of the formal release and building their community, vocalist Fang VonWrathenstein comments:

"Releasing The Offering early to our Patreon members was a risk, as no one has done a "drop release" quite like this before, but it paid off enormously! The most diehard Lords fans got to own the album MONTHS in advance of the release, and we added nearly one hundred additional warriors to our metal army! I'd like to thank all the stalwart warriors who supported us during this process (and continue to support us to this day). We've been able to make amazing connections with so many fans via Patreon and Discord...I think the pandemic and the time leading up to the release would've been a much more lonely time without the ability to communicate with these incredible people. But now: the time has come to finally unleash The Offering to the world. Make sure you're wearing at least a full suit of armor before you hit play, as this one is a heavy hitter!"

To celebrate the formal release of 'The Offering', Lords of the Trident is playing a special release party at The Annex at The Red Zone in Madison, WI TOMORROW (April 2) - featuring special guest performer Grant Truesdell of Unleash The Archers!

"We're beyond excited to announce that Grant Truesdell from Unleash the Archers is making the trek from Canada to join us for this year's fest! We'll be playing the whole album with Grant for the first time ever, so if you can make the journey to see it, you should absolutely plan on attending this historic event!"

Fans can expect to hear plenty of announcements about the band's touring plans for 2022 in the weeks to come!

Talking about "Carry The Weight", vocalist Fang VonWrathenstein comments:

"The playthrough video for 'Carry the Weight' was originally envisioned as a drum-only playthrough. That version still exists and will be coming out for Patreon backers soon, but ultimately I'm glad we added the rest of the band. Enjoy the surprise at the end!"

The new album from Lords of the Trident, 'The Offering', will be released on April 1, 2022 - but it's available NOW via the band's Patreon.

To celebrate the formal release of 'The Offering', Lords of the Trident is playing a special release party at The Annex at The Red Zone in Madison, WI on April 2nd - featuring special guest performer Grant Truesdell of Unleash The Archers! And don't forget, the fifth annual installment of the band's Mad With Power Festival, led by headliners Aether Realm & Psychostick, is coming up this summer!

About the LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Patreon:

The full album (The Offering) is available right now for members of the Lords of the Trident Patreon who pledge $5 or more. This pledge not only gets you an immediate copy of the new album, but also their three previous albums (Shadows from the Past, Pull the Plug, and Power Outage) as well as 20+ internet-exclusive singles, 25+ full-concert bootlegs, and a mountain of exclusive content for Patreon backers only. The full album will not be released publicly until April, so being a backer is the only way to hear it before it releases. 100% of the money pledged goes directly to the band and helps them play more shows, make more content, and survive the evils of the music industry.

"So far, those brave enough to join our METAL ARMY via the Patreon have been absolutely raving about the album non-stop! I've lost count of the number of times people have said "Album of the Year", and just the other day there was a FOUR-PAGE discussion on our discord about how good the songwriting and drumming was. We've been asking our top-tier backers to help us pick the next music videos to release, and almost all of them have been a dead tie. To say we're happy with the reception so far is a vast understatement!"

LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Release Music Video For New Single "Charlatan"

Wisconsin-based heavy metal outfit LORDS OF THE TRIDENT have released the second single from their upcoming studio album, 'The Offering'. The new track, "Charlatan", is out today - along with a thrilling new music video. Fans who are already members of the band's Patreon received a week's worth of early access to both the song + video ahead of the public release!

Talking about their new single "Charlatan", Lords of the Trident comment:

"Anyone who's seen a live Lords of the Trident show knows that we're no stranger to pyrotechnics. This video was shot in complete darkness, with the only source of light coming from the burning cannon fuse! The plant in China that makes this specific type of fuse burned down in 2019, so we only have enough fuse for one take each. ...it took us a few takes (and a lot of coughing) to realize we should've probably opened a window during filming."

The new album from Lords of the Trident, 'The Offering', will be released on April 1, 2022 - but it's available NOW via the band's Patreon.

For even more from Lords of the Trident, the band partnered with YouTube/internet sensation Big Man Tyrone for a very fun promotional video,

The Offering is the fifth full-length album by Lords of the Trident (and their 10th release overall). This medieval concept album weaves a tragic story of a young boy sold into servitude, his arduous training to become a "Guardian", and the city that betrays him. Mixed and mastered by Grammy-nominated Jacob Hansen (engineer for Avantasia, Unleash the Archers, Volbeat, Amaranthe, and more), this is one of the best-sounding epics you'll hear. Filled with blazing solos, soaring vocals, complex drumming, and multi-layer musical composition, 'The Offering' will take you on a heroic and tragic musical journey that will stay in your mind long after the album has finished.

LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Announce New Album 'The Offering' - Release First Single "Power of Evil"

American heavy metal five-piece LORDS OF THE TRIDENT are thrilled to share the news of their upcoming studio album. The Wisconsin-based band will independently release their fifth full-length effort, 'The Offering', on April 1, 2022 (no joke!). However, always eager to build a stronger bond between their loyal fans, the band has launched a Patreonthat will offer a treasure chest of rewards; most notably an immediate digital copy of 'The Offering', along with their previous three albums!

Talking about their new album, 'The Offering', the band comments:

"'The Offering' is, beyond a doubt, a big risk for us as a band. It's the most complex and technically difficult album we've ever made, our first record with Jacob Hansen at the helm, AND our first concept record. It's also a tragic tale, which fans of our style of music may not be used to. But honestly, we couldn't be happier with the result. We designed this album to push the boundaries of our music while also being ABSOLUTELY filled with hooks, and we succeeded on all accounts. We know you'll enjoy the tale we've woven. 'Sit with me now, and watch as the story unfolds...'"

To give a first taste of their new album, Lords of the Trident have released a new music video for the first single from the record, titled "Power of Evil". The track is one of three from the album that features guest vocals from Unleash The Archers guitarist Grant Truesdell! Watch the video for "Power of Evil" below!
