Texas-based metal band The Crowned is shaking the scene with their latest sonic assault, "Set You Free," featuring the powerhouse vocals of Eddie Hermida (Suicide Silence, All Shall Perish).
This track is a brutal yet dynamic fusion of nu-metal, post-hardcore, and cinematic storytelling, proving once again that The Crowned refuses to be confined by genre boundaries.
With production that hits like a freight train, "Set You Free" blends crushing guitar riffs, earth-shattering breakdowns, and guttural vocals that push the limits of intensity. Marc Coronado (vocals/drums) delivers an unrelenting vocal performance, matched by Hermida's signature ferocity, making for a visceral and unfiltered experience.
The accompanying cinematic music video draws heavy inspiration from Snatch (2000), recreating the underground boxing scene where a fighter is expected to take a fall. The visuals mirror the song's themes of struggle, defiance, and ultimate victory, capturing the track's raw aggression visually.
Since forming in 2013, The Crowned has carved out its path in metal, sharing stages with heavyweights like Slipknot, Born of Osiris, and Ill Niño. Now, signed to Curtain Call Records, they're gearing up for a monumental 2025, with a string of new singles and high-energy performances set to dominate the global stage.
