7, Relapse Records), with the song “Forget You,” which is streaming via

“We
are very excited to have the song ‘Forget You’ be the first song premiered off
our new albumCrooked Doors, said Royal Thunder guitar player and
co-founder Josh Weaver. “It makes sense for us to premiere ‘Forget You’ first,

album, CVI. Thank you to everyone who has showed us love and
support and made this album possible! Enjoy!”

Royal
Thunder is Mlny Parsonz, Josh Weaver, Evan Diprima
and Will Fiore. Royal Thunder began work on the album in early 2014,
returning to work at the Aria Recording Studio where they recorded the band’s
critically lauded debut, CVI. Pitchfork described singer Mlny
Parsonz as “a blues-rock banshee of a woman, equal parts riot grrl and gospel
diva” while Spin said she “commands a bluesy mix of Led Zep and
Sleater-Kinney.” Rolling Stone’s David Fricke said Weaver’s playing has “the
meaty, base elements of early-Seventies British blues.”
