Australian gothic/modern metal act VICTORIA K unveil their new single Incubus, taken from their forthcoming third studio album The Pleasure of Sorrow. The release comes ahead of a busy October for the Melbourne-based band, who opened for Katatonia over the weekend and are set to support Paradise Lost on their upcoming Australian dates later this month.
Following the previously released Oh So Weary and Take It All, the new single offers a further insight into the band’s evolving sound bringing together the atmospheric depth of gothic metal, modern heaviness and a more adventurous approach to songwriting. With influences ranging from Spiritbox to Evanescence and Lacuna Coil, VICTORIA K continue to explore the space between melody, intensity and electronic experimentation.
VICTORIA K will also return to the stage this October for a series of Australian shows alongside two established names in international metal. On October 10 they opened for Swedish progressive metal act Katatonia at Melbourne’s Northcote Theatre, and will join British gothic metal pioneers Paradise Lost as special guests for three dates in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne.
