Website Gallery Updated for 2007

If you haven't been to SonicAbyss.com lately, now is the time to check out the updated gallery page. Many new pictures have been added from the live shows, recent studio pictures, and stills from the Enter the Earth video. If you have never experienced a Red King performnance live, you can now see many (not all...there must always be secrets) of the perfromers and their activities during one of these ritualistic encounters. If you have your own pictures from a Red King perfromance, don't hesitate to send them in for possible posting in the gallery.

The Red King at CONVERGENCE 13

The Red King has been tapped to headline the opening night of
CONVERGENCE 13, the largest annual gothic music festival in the US.
This year's events will be in Portland, Oregon from May 24-27. Other
acts this year include Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, Abney Park
and Faith and the Muse. While The Red King was originally slated to
perform at the Crystal Ballroom, the festival's home venue, promoters
felt that the Crystal would not be adequite for the extreme nature of
a Red King show. Therefore, Convergence 13 sought a more appropriate
venue for the entire opening night. They secured the old Fez Ballroom,
located just around the corner from the Crystal, and a favorite of
many other national touring bands as well as the beguiiling Shadowplay
dance extravaganza. At the Fez, The very intense ritual and multimedia
presentation of the Red King can be fully realized without the
limitations inherent at Crystal. Thanks Convergence13! ...
Collaborators with The Red King for this performance:
-SPECULUM MUNDI INCOGNITO
-OXALIA OPIATE
-SERPENTINE
-WOLFGANG
-MALICE
-TEN
-RAVEN
-HISSMEOW
-PAUL RYAN
TICKETS : $7.00 At the door , or admition is included with a
CONVERGENCE 13 festival pass ($83) at http://convergence13.com or at
Corrosion Records in Portland, 128 NW 23rd.
***I would highly recommend getting tickets as early as possible on
Thurs. May 24th as they will likely be sold out quickly...
