The band comments: “It is a huge honour and means a lot for OBSIDIAN KINGDOM to present ‘Mantiis’ and its international release to the world with the support of the legendary PROG magazine, home to many of the bands that have inspired our work. We feel there could be no better way to introduce our debut album to a wider audience for it to enjoy and judge; a post-modern rock opera where girls and insects dance to the sound of an eerie tune that will delight progressive music lovers from all over the world. Feast your ears and remember not to take candy from strangers!”

‘Mantiis’ had originally been self-released in a limited edition of 500 copies and is now scheduled for international release through Season of Mist on October 24th.
