IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT Streams "Hotel Sphinx", Announces New Album Goldstar

Imperial Triumphant is back and they're as weird as they've ever been! Which is saying something, because this band has never stuck to any conventional metal sound. Imperial Triumphant is now streaming their new single "Hotel Sphinx" alongside a video directed by the band's own Steve Blanco.

"The 'Entertainer extraordinaire' leads a gullible audience through the sinister halls of the Hotel Sphinx," wrote Imperial Triumphant of the single. "Behind the lights, cameras, and endless action lies a disturbing undercurrent—where power is fed by the innocence of youth. The lines between entertainment, initiation, and exploitation blur as a conspiracy of silence reigns in the 'Illuminated Valley of the Kings', where political celebrity celebrates death. Rites of passage too dark to speak, promising false salvation in a world where the show never ends."

Imperial Triumphant will release their new record Goldstar sometime in 2025. In the meantime, just keep watching the music video for "Hotel Sphinx" until your brain melts and you yourself become a weird Art Deco gold demon thing that's really good at an instrument. It's not a bad deal, honestly.
