The Grey is back with Kodok, a masterful fusion of raw energy, deep emotion, and undeniable artistic growth. Following the trajectory of their acclaimed previous releases—Dead Fire (2019) and The Grey (2018)—this record carves a new narrative, guiding listeners through an intricate yet comforting journey of power, pain, and catharsis. With meticulously crafted layers and textures, Kodok expands the band’s sonic palette, offering a richly varied tonal composition. The album is further elevated by collaborations with an incredible roster of guest artists, including Will Haven, Ace Skunk Anansie, Ricky Warwick, fattybassman, and dARKMODE, bringing unexpected depth and fresh musicality to the project. Designed as a sequential body of work—with a clear beginning, middle, and end—Kodok invites listeners to fully immerse themselves in its journey. With Kodok, The Grey continues to push boundaries, offering an immersive and emotionally resonant experience.
