Gitarrist Jim Matheos (Fates Warning, Arch/Matheos) und FM-Frontmann Steve Overland bilden das Rückgrat der neuen Supergroup KINGS OF MERCIA. Hinzu kommen Matheos‘ Fates Warning Bandkollege Joey Vera am Bass und Drummer Simon Philips (ex-Toto, Derek Sherinian). Das selbstbetitelte Debüt erscheint am 23. September, den Opener `Wrecking Ball´ gibt´s bereits jetzt im Visualizer.

Jim Matheos hat Folgendes zur Debütsingle zu sagen:

 „‚Wrecking Ball‘ was the first song I wrote for what would become Kings Of Mercia, it’s also the opening track on the album. I didn’t have a clear idea of what I wanted to do musically but this one came together very quickly and naturally without too much forethought. The combination of simple but heavy riffs along with Steve’s powerful vocals sets the tone and mood for the rest of the record.“
