Die als Singer / Songwriterin gestartete Victoria K, ist nach dem 2020er Debüt “Essentia“ nicht nur in der australischen Symphonic Metal Szene ein Begriff. Das Zweitwerk, namens “Kore“ steht für Oktober auf dem Plan. Davon stammt auch das progressive ‘Tower’, das die Band jetzt mit einem Video versehen, vorstellt.

Die Band erklärt:

„This idea and concept sparked a lot of ideas, taking inspiration from events and questions that we face in our current society. Questions such as the existence of a divine power, and why we praise higher powers both spiritually speaking and in our physical world. It also raises ideas about our current social regimes, like capitalism, as well as the toxicity of materialist and consumerist cultures. Aspects of this song touch upon the exploitation of the middle and lower class. This is a topic that we wanted to bring forward, as musicians, artists, and writers as we feel it is relevant and important. This song also takes a lot of inspiration from ethnic sounds. The chanting is sung in ancient Greek, meant to imitate marching and worship, this ties into the message that the song is trying to convey.“
