KILTER, ANDROMEDA ANARCHIA, GROWLERS CHOIR and SEVEN)SUNS have unleashed a video for their song “My Coprse, Your Dungeon”. The video is released in support of their La Suspendida album, which is also out today via Silent Pendulum Records.
Librettist Will Berger comments “My Corpse, Your Dungeon” is the title character’s assertion of personal identity, displaying both the power of her sexual attractiveness and the insecure need for affirmation (“Right? Right?”) inherent in exhibitionistic sadomasochism.”

Led by progressive jazz metal trio KILTER’s bassist Laurent David, La Suspendida is a collaboration between musicians and artists, including KILTER’s own Kenny Grohowski (IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT), and Ed Rosenberg III, ANDROMEDA ANARCHIA (soprano), the string quartet SEVEN)SUNS, and the GROWLERS CHOIR (comprised of metal vocalists), as well as the librettist WILL BERGER. The musicality of the opera traverses multiple realms ranging from the atonal melodies of new music to the aggressive rhythms of metal.
