LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Unleash New Single Jet Set City + Music Video

17.09.2024

New EP V.G.E.P. Out October 1, 2024

LORDS OF THE TRIDENT, fresh off their acclaimed rendition of Steve Winwood's Valerie, now unveil Jet Set City, the fourth single from their upcoming EP V.G.E.P. (Video Game EP). This latest release, accompanied by a captivating music video, pays homage to one of the band's beloved video games, Jet Grind Radio.

Frontman Fang VonWrathenstein explains: "In the early 2000s I bought a used Dreamcast from a friend, and it came with a copy of the game Jet Grind Radio. I couldn't stop playing it! The look, the gameplay, and especially the iconic soundtrack captivated me. It quickly became one of the first games that I ever finished to 100% completion. When we were writing this EP, I knew I wanted this song full of rebellious vibes to be about the street-ruling graffiti gangs of Tokyo-to! It's a bit embarrassing to admit, but in order to shoot the music video I had to slowly re-learn how to rollerblade. I had quite a few painful spills leading up to filming day!"

About LORDS OF THE TRIDENT

Born from a volcano containing metal and steel, Fang VonWrathenstein's immortal quest was to assemble a band of the most metal warriors imaginable. After thousands of years and multiple bandmates captured or killed by the shadowy multinational group known as SPIDR, the LORDS OF THE TRIDENT are currently in their strongest lineup yet: Fang – whose voice will randomly set microphones ablaze – on lead vocals. The wrongfully disgraced aristocrat-turned-sellsword Baron Taurean Helleshaar on lead guitar. The shadowy master of samurai subterfuge Akira Metal on lead guitar. The high priest of death, Pontifex Mortis, on lead bass. And the animal-loving, percussively proficient Master Hercule “Herc” Schlagzeuger on the lead drums. Together, these warriors roam the lands in search of ever greater battles, more lustrous loot, and the strongest of heavy metal fans to join their metal army!
