East Cameron Folkcore Streaming Album Trailer, Kingdom Of Fear Out April 7th

East Cameron Folkcore is releasing their cinematic concept album Kingdom of Fear on April 7, 2015. Check out the album trailer here.

They wanted to bring back a sense of social consciousness that they feel has been missing from much of todays music. Formed in the Northeast Austin neighborhood that theyre named after, the eight-piece orchestral group pieces together folk, country, blues and punk to create a unique sound that represents the poor and downtrodden while expressing the disgruntled and under employed youth they have found themselves a part of. The updated lineup includes long time Gorilla Biscuits drummer, Luke Abbey.

The fourteen songs on Kingdom of Fear are divided into four chapters, perfectly split for the double-vinyl edition of the album. Starting with The Grand Illusion, the view then focuses Through The Looking Glass before the people raise their voices (The People Speak) until finally, the Ship Of Fools casts off, ending the record and the story. You have to experience this record in its entirety. One who skips or compiles will lose the whole thing. The introduction, What The Thunder Said serves as a view to what happens in the next hour and the songs of the record merge without rests, repeat musical motifs and recycle lines which came up before.
Kingdom of Fear was recorded over the first half of 2014 and mastered by Howie Weinberg. In August of that year, ECF headed overseas to Europe for a month of club shows and festival dates that included stand out sets at Haldern Pop Festival, Serengeti Festival, Winterthur Festival, Chiemsee Festival, Sounds of the Forest Festival, Noorderzon Festival and more. ECF will return to Europe in May for European Festival performances at Pink Pop Festival (NL), Greenfield Festival (CH), Hurricane and Stateside Festival (DE) and more.
